Replacing the spark plug
CAUTION:
Do not touch the spark plug or plug cap if the engine is
running (high voltage).
Switch o the engine before starting any maintenance
work. A hot engine can cause burns. Wear protective
gloves!
The spark plug must be replaced in case of damage to the
insulator, electrode erosion (burn) or if the electrodes are
very dirty or oily.
Remove the lter cover (see “Cleaning the air lter”).
Pull the plug cap (8) o the spark plug. Use only the com
bination wrench supplied with the saw to remove the spark
plug.
Electrode gap
The electrode gap must be 0.5 mm.
CAUTION: Use only the following spark plugs:
NGK CMR7A‑5.
Checking the ignition spark
Press the loosened spark plug (9) with the ignition cable
rmly connected against the cylinder using insulated pliers
(not near the spark plug opening).
Put combination switch (10) in the ON position.
Pull the starter cable hard.
If the function is correct, an ignition spark must be visible
near the electrodes.
Checking the muer screws
Unscrew 3 screws (11) and remove the upper half of the
muer (12).
Note: For saw models with catalytic converters (EA3200S,
EA3201S), remove the converter along with the upper muf‑

The screws on the bottom muer half (13) are now
accessible, and it is possible to check them for tightness.
If they are loose, tighten by hand (Caution: do not over‑
tighten).
