cause decreases your chainsaw’s performance.
Make sure that you have the proper replacement

fuel filter is usually mounted on the end of
the fuel pickup hose inside the gas tank.
- Carefully pull the
end of the fuel pickup hose to the gas tank
opening. DO NOT DISCONNECT THE HOSE FROM THE
CHAINSAW. If you accidentally disconnect the
hose for the chainsaw, you will have to take
your chainsaw to an authorized repair center
- Carefully and gently,
pull and twist the filter casing while
holding the end of the hose steady to remove
the old filter from the hose.

filter with a new filter, which is correct
for the make and model of your chainsaw in
the same manner as you removed the old
filter.
