As we continue through the 462 build sequence, a couple of items come to mind that need to be addressed and/or considered.
The controller reset recommendation especially applies when there is a large elevation change or the saw gets engine work. Technically speaking, running the saw with the choke on has a range of between 30 and 60 seconds. I went the full minute.
Looking at the paperwork but paraphrasing:
Control lever to 🔺️ position
Engage chain brake
Start without depressing trigger
Run engine at least 30 seconds to 60 max in🔺️ position
Disengage chain brake
Hold trigger for at least 30 seconds
The engine accelerates but is hesitant initially, it then fluctuates. The controller is now calibrating. It will then go to high idle quickly. As soon as the engine rpms drop back down, release the trigger.
At around the 20 second mark the my saw cleaned out and went to high idle.
The controller will "boot" itself over time to the locale as well. So if a guy does not want to go through the process there is just a longer time period before the saw is running at optimum.
With the oiler, it's summed it pretty good in the video - longer bar, adjust the roll pin stop so that you can use the control bolt in the high volume output position.
Probably the most important part of this session is understanding the maintenance aspect regarding the "new & improved" fine mesh screen of the fuel filter. More so, because it can get plugged from debris from the much smaller micro size when compared to the earlier version.
Bottom line here - the more times you have to drain the crapp out of your tank, the sooner you will need to replace the newer version filter.
I'm currently available for custom saw modifications. Please shoot me an mail if you are interested.
