Re: Chainsaw starting

Borat, thanks for your replay. I guess I will try to make this a little more clear. I am a firefighter and have been for about 10 years now. When I first started on the job we were told it is not wise to run a chainsaw at full throttle when it is not on a load. Reason being is that they are made to run at high idle and not just sit and idle for a period of time. We used to have a problem with gunking of the motors and since the practice has changed we have noticed a huge reduction in this. Well we now have some new individuals here who claim they have read the manual and it does not state that it needs to be run on a load when running at high idle. So on our morning rig checks we always check all of our tools and some people start these saws up and have them running at high idle for about 30 secs thinking this is the right thing to do. Im just trying to clarify this so I can pass along the proper information.
Chainsaw starting

Ive been dealing with the issue on how to run a chainsaw after it has been started and am hoping someone on here has the answer, is it necessary to run a chainsaw at high idle after it is started? I have heard that it is not a good thing to do with the chainsaw due to it needs to be under a load to run at high idle. Can someone please clarify this, thanks.
