Part: Checks and maintenance

Video tutorial

Chainsaws also have an engine and a carburettor that can malfunction. In this video, we will see how to repair it. After checking that the spark plug is fine, the YouTuber decides to inspect the carburettor.

He shows it already disassembled. The problem was that the rubber diaphragm of the carburettor had dried out due to infrequent use of the chainsaw; in this case, the diaphragm had become dry, and when the machine was put back to work, it was no longer efficient.

Using a compressor, give a light blow to the internal gears of the carburettor. In this specific case, the YouTuber did not change the diaphragm but soaked it in petrol for a while to regain elasticity.

Then reassemble everything and salvage the part without needing to replace it.
