TROUBLESHOOTING & REPAIR

At Earthquake, we build quality and durability into the design

of our products; but no amount of careful design by us, and

careful maintenance by you, can guarantee a repair-free life

for your Earthquake chainsaw. Most repairs will be minor, and

easily xed by following the suggestions in the troubleshoot-

ing guide in this section.

The guide will help you pinpoint the causes of common prob-

lems and identify remedies.

For more complicated repairs, you may want to rely on your

retailer, an authorized service center or Earthquake. A parts

breakdown is located toward the end of this manual.

We will always be glad to answer any questions you have, or

help you nd suitable assistance. To order parts or inquire

about warranty, call or e-mail us using the contact information

found below.

ORDERING REPLACEMENT PARTS

Parts can be obtained from the store where the chainsaw was

purchased or direct from the factory. To order parts visit www.

getearthquake.com or call 1-800-345-6007.

For other general questions, you can e-mail us at info@ge-

tearthquake.com.

Include the following information with your order:

1. Part numbers

2. Part description

3. Quantity

4. Model number and serial number

5. If the chrome surface of the top or side plates is

damaged, le back until such damage is removed.

6. Keep all cutters at an equal length. Begin ling on the

cutter with the most damage, and le all subsequent

cutters to the same length.

7. DO NOT alter or le the tops of bumper tie strap links

(between each cutter) on the 91VG chain.

8. File ONLY on the “Push” stroke, do not pull the le against

any metal object as this will damage the le.

It is also important to maintain the depth gauge setting

throughout the lifespan of the saw chain. 91VG and 91P

chains use a depth setting of 0.025”. This setting should be

checked and corrected every third or fourth time the saw

chain is sharpened.

1. Place the correct depth-gauge tool over the chain, with

one depth gauge protruding through the slot in the tool.

2. If the depth gauge extends above the slot, use a at le

to bring the depth gauge ush with the top of the tool.

Use only the push stroke of the le. Pulling the le will

damage the le.

3. Make sure to round over the leading edge of the depth

gauge to prevent kickbacks and tie strap breakage.

STORAGE

When storing the chainsaw for periods of three months or

longer:

1. Empty and clean the fuel tank in a well-ventilated area.

2. Dispose of fuel properly. Local regulations may apply.

Contact your local government or hazardous material

service for instructions.

3. Run the engine until the carburetor is dry. This will draw

the fuel out of the carburetor, preventing costly repairs to

clean gummed fuel from the fuel system.

4. Remove the saw chain and guide bar. Clean them

thoroughly and treat with a rust preventative before

storing.

5. Thoroughly clean the chain saw. Remove sawdust and

excess bar and chain oil from the clutch cover and the

area surrounding the clutch. Pay close attention when

cleaning the cylinder cooling ns and the air lter.

6. Store the unit in a dry location, out of the reach of

children and other unauthorized users.
