: Pry the shutter (1) out of the 
carburetor box cover and slide it into 
the slot (2) at the bottom end of the 
carburetor box cover.
The shutter must be returned to the 
"summer" position at temperatures 
above +20°C. This is necessary to 
avoid engine running problems and 
overheating.
Fit the carburetor box cover and secure 
it with the twist lock:
Preheated air from around the cylinder is 
now drawn in along with cold air – this 
helps prevent carburetor icing.
At temperatures below -10°C
It is advisable to fit the intake air 
preheating kit* if you use your saw in 
extremely cold conditions (temperatures 
below -10°C, in powder or drifting snow).
When fitted, the kit ensures that only 
heated air is drawn in from around the 
cylinder. It prevents air filter and 
carburetor icing.
The shutter for carburetor preheating 
must be in the "winter" position when the 
intake air preheating kit is fitted.
* see "Guide to Using this Manual"
If your saw is very cold (frost or ice on 
machine), start the engine and keep it at 
a high idle speed (with chain brake 
disengaged) until it reaches normal 
operating temperature.
The air filter may load up faster when 
you use intake air preheating – clean it 
more frequently.
In the event of engine running problems, 
first check that conditions for use of 
intake air preheating still apply.
