MAINTENANCE
Winter use
Running problems can occur when using the machine in the 
cold and snowy conditions caused by:
Too low engine temperature.
Icing of the air filter and carburetor.
Special measures are therefore often required:
Preheat the intake air to the carburetor by using the heat 
from the cylinder.
Partly mask the air inlet on the starter to increase the 
working temperature of the engine.
Fitting the winterising kit
Cut out a hole using a knife as shown.
Fit the winter cover in the cylinder cover.
Temperature 0
°°°°C (32°°°°F) or colder:
Move the cover from position A to position B so that 
preheated air from the cylinder can pass into the carburettor 
compartment and prevent, e.g. the air filter icing up again. 
When fitting the winter cover in position B the centrifugal 
cleaning nozzle is blocked. This measure requires the air filter 
to be cleaned more regularly.
Temperature -5
°°°°C (23°°°°F) or colder:
For running the machine in cold weather or powder snow, a 
special cover is available, which is mounted on the starter 
housing. This reduces the intake of cold air and prevents large 
amounts of snow from being sucked in.
CAUTION! If the special winterising kit has been fitted or any 
measures have been taken to increase the temperature these 
changes must be reversed before the machine is used in 
normal temperature conditions. Otherwise there is a risk of 
overheating, resulting in severe damage to the engine.
IMPORTANT! Any maintenance other than that described in 
this manual must be carried out by your servicing dealer 
(retailer).
Heated handles
575XPG
On models with the model code XPG both the front handle 
bar and the rear handle are equipped with electrical heating 
coils. These are supplied with electricity from a generator built 
into the chain saw.
Electrical carburetor heating
575XPG
If this chain saw has the model code XPG then it is equipped 
with an electrically heated carburettor. The electrical heating 
prevents icing in the carburettor. A thermostat regulates 
heating so that the carburettor always has the correct working 
temperature.
