560XP Hot start.

[Mark_Skyland]

Out and up is full choke and part throttle. Push the lever down and it knocks the choke off completely but still leaves part throttle.

If you remove the air filter you can see the choke butterfly and get a good idea of what's happening.

 

So for a warm start its no choke but part throttle.

 

Not every 560 will need that though, some start fine without having to put part throttle on when warm.

[Mark_Skyland]

I meant to add if you want part choke you need to pull out and lift up but not all the way. This gives part choke and no throttle.

To have part choke and part throttle you need to pull out lift up push down all the way then lift up but not all the way!

 

It's best to remove filter and have a mess about.

So you use choke when hot as well as cold?.

Not choke, but high idle - read in the user manual, it sometimes help.

[Stubby]

As Troll says its not " half choke " Its half throttle . Mine hot starts with just one pump of primer bulb . Everything else left alone .

using saw last week, had backside ache with it when hot, wont run, seemed like a US spark plug or partly blocked fuel line. Tried new plug, perfect when cold but when hot did not want to run and eventually it died and refused to go further.

 

Have taken it into the supplying local dealer who has diagnosed no compression and a seized engine, as such beyond economic repair. Using 50-1 mix (100mls per 5 litre of unleaded) with either Sthil or Husky 2 stroke mix.

 

Saw has run for about 20 hours in total ringing up 300/400mm trunks.

 

We currently await what Husky say.

 

Is there any history on this?.

Yes, air leak on the cylinder gasket usually, although the muffler likes to spit bolts out, creating lean mixes.

Or the impulse line, that's common too!
