Stihl Shutter

[velvetfoot]

I guess I didn't read the manual well enough. There is a shutter in front of the air cleaner that is reversible-one way for cold weather and one way for everything else. Alas, mine must have been on cold weather for years. I looked at the manual because it's been hard restarting.

I find it helpful to read the owner's manual before I buy anything at all complicated, just to make sure I know what I'm letting myself in for. But then again, I enjoy doing my income taxes...

(P.S. I knew to check the shutter before I started the Stihl the first time).

What is this manual you speak of?

Yeah, some folks are more into the excitement of discovering how their stuff works by trial and error!

Trial and ...
Is that blood?

Good point.

If all else fails, RTFM.

The 025 I bought a few weeks ago has that, I couldn't figure out how it goes when it's not in winter mode. I'll have to have a closer look, no manual

I wasn't super concerned as I have other saws to use. I didn't realize the shutter slid down that far but I just went out and looked at it, got 'er figured out thanks
