4. Řešení problémů

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your ECHO CS-310-16 Chainsaw. For more complex problems, consult a qualified service technician.

4.1 Engine Won't Start

• No Fuel/Incorrect Mixture: Ensure the fuel tank has fresh, correctly mixed fuel.
• Nastavení sytiče: Verify the choke is set correctly for starting (full choke for cold start, half choke after initial "pop").
• Zapalovací svíčka: Check the spark plug for fouling or damage. Clean or replace if necessary.
• Flooded Engine: If the engine is flooded (too much fuel), remove the spark plug, pull the starter rope several times to clear the cylinder, and then reinstall the plug and attempt to start with the choke off.

4.2 Chain Not Cutting Effectively

• Dull Chain: The most common cause. Sharpen or replace the chain.
• Incorrect Chain Tension: A loose or overly tight chain can affect cutting performance. Adjust tension.
• Insufficient Chain Oil: Ensure the chain oil tank is full and the oiler is working. A dry chain will not cut well and can cause damage.
• Worn Guide Bar: Check the guide bar for wear, burrs, or a worn nose sprocket. Replace if severely worn.

4.3 Engine Lacks Power

• Znečištěný vzduchový filtr: A clogged air filter restricts airflow. Clean or replace it.
• Incorrect Fuel Mixture: An improper fuel-to-oil ratio can lead to poor performance.
• Lapač jisker: A clogged spark arrestor screen in the muffler can reduce engine power. Clean it regularly.
