1. INTRODUCTION

This service manual contains detaileddescriptions of all the repair andservicing procedures specific to thisseries of chainsaws There are separatehandbooks for servicing procedures onstandardized parts and assemblies thatare installed in several STIHL powertool models. Reference is made tothese handbooks in the appropriatechapters of this manual.

You should make use of the illustratedparts lists while carrying out repairwork. They show the installed positionsof the individual components andassemblies.

Always use the latest edition of theparts list to determine the part numbersof any replacement parts required.Microfilmed parts list are always moreup to date than printed lists.

A fault on the machine may haveseveral causes. Consult thetroubleshooting charts for allassemblies in the "Standard Repairs,Troubleshooting" handbook.

Refer to the "Technical Information"bulletins for engineering changes whichhave been introduced since publicationof this service manual. Technicalinformation bulletins also supplementthe parts list until a revised edition isissued.

Special servicing tools mentioned inthe descriptions are listed in the lastchapter of this manual. Use the partnumbers to identify the tools in the"STIHL Special Tools" manual. Themanual lists all special servicing toolscurrently available from STIHL.Symbols are included in the text andpictures for greater clarity. Themeanings are as follows:

In the descriptions:

• = Action to be taken as shown inthe illustration (above the text)

- = Action to be taken thatis not shown in the illustration(above the text)

In the illustrations:

P = Pointer

= Direction of movement

Service manuals and all technicalinformation bulletins describingengineering changes are intendedexclusively for the use of STIHLservicing dealers. They must not bepassed to third parties.

Servicing and repairs are madeconsiderably easier if the powerheadis mounted to the assembly stand (1)5910 890 3100.

This enables the powerhead to beswivelled to the best position for theongoing repair and leaves both handsfree.

It is secured with the bar mountingstud after removing the chain sprocketcover and tensioner.

Always use original STIHLreplacement parts. They can beidentified by the STIHL part number,the STIHLSTIHLSTIHLSTIHL logo and the STIHLparts symbol (The symbol mayappear alone on small parts.

2.6 Tightening Torques

Plastoform screws are used for polymer components and "DG" screws for lightmetal components. These screws form apermanent thread when they are installed for the first time. They can be removed and installed as often as necessarywithout detrimentally affecting the strength of the screwed assembly, providing the specified tightening torque is observed.For this reason it is essential to use a torque wrench.

Remarks

Use the following procedure when refitting a P or DG screw in an existing thread:

- Place the screw in the hole and rotate it counterclockwise until it drops down slightly.- Tighten the screw clockwise to the specified torque.

This procedure ensures that the screw engages properly in the existing thread and does not form a new thread andweaken the joint.

Note: Power screwdriver speed for use in polymer: Plastoform screws max. 600 rpm,DG screws max. 500 rpm.

Use only screws specified in parts list.Do not use screws with underhead locking teeth on polymer components.

Troubleshooting chart - see "StandardRepairs, Troubleshooting" handbook.

- Remove chain sprocket - see 3.1.

3.3 Chain Brake3.3.1 Checking Function

The chain brake is one of the mostimportant safety devices on thechainsaw. Its efficiency is measured interms of braking time, i.e. the time thatelapses between activating the brakeand the saw chain coming to astandstill. The shorter the braking time,the better the efficiency and protectionoffered against being injured by therotating chain.

Contamination (with chain oil, chips,fine particles of abrasion, etc.) andsmoothing of the friction surfaces of thebrake band and clutch drum impair thecoefficient of friction. This, in turn,reduces the frictional forces and thusprolongs the braking time. A fatigued orstretched brake spring has the samenegative effect.

- Start the engine.

- With the chain brake activated(locked), open throttle wide for briefperiod (max. 3 seconds) the chainmust not rotate.

- With the chain brake released, openthrottle wide and activate the brakemanually - the chain must come to anabrupt stop.

Note: The braking time is in order ifdeceleration of the saw chain isimperceptible to the eye.

4.3 Exhaust Muffler/Spark Arresting Screen

STIHL 019 T 15

4.4 Leakage Test

Defective oil seals, diaphragms andgaskets or cracks in castings or thespacer flange cause leaks. Suchfaults allow supplementary air toenter the engine and thus upset thefuel-air mixture.

This makes adjustment of theprescribed idle speed difficult, if notimpossible.

Moreover, the transition from idlespeed to part or full throttle is notsmooth.

The engine housing can be checkedthoroughly for leaks with thecarburetor and crankcase tester andthe vacuum pump.

4.4.1 Preparations

- Remove the carburetor - see 1 0.5.2.

- Set the piston to top dead center(T.D.C.). This can be checkedthrough the spark plug hole.

- Remove the air baffle - see 10.6.

• Fit the spark plug and tightendown to 25 Nm (18.5 Ibf.ft).

• Back off muffler mounting screwshalfway.

• Fit new gasket on spacer flange.

• Fit the sealing plate (1)0000 855 8106 between mufflerand cylinder.

Note: The sealing plate mustcompletely cover the exhaust port.

- Tighten the screws moderately.

Important: Do not overtighten thescrews since the sealing plate mayotherwise be damaged.

STIHL 019 T 16

• Close the vent screw (1) on therubber bulb.

- Continue squeezing rubber bulbuntil the gauge indicates apressure of 0.5 bar (7.25 psi). Ifthis pressure remains constant forat least 20 seconds, the enginehousing is airtight.

• However, if the indicated pressuredrops, the leak must be located andthe faulty part replaced.

Note: To find the leak, coat the suspectarea with oil and pressurize the enginehousing again. Bubbles will appear if aleak exists.

- Carry out the vacuum test - see 4.4.3and 4.4.4.

- After finishing the test, open the ventscrew and disconnect the hose.

- Remove the test flange.

- Loosen muffler mounting screws.

- Take out the sealing plate and tightenthe screws to 7.0 Nm (5.2 Ibf.ft).

4.4.2 Pressure Test

STIHL 019 T 17

4.4.3 Vacuum Test(for diaphragm)

In these chainsaws the fuel-airmixture is sucked into the crankcasevia a diaphragm valve. This valvecloses to prevent the gas mixtureflowing back into the carburetor.

If the diaphragm seating face on thespacer flange is dirty or thediaphragm is fatigued or faulty, themixture may flow back and result inan irregular running behavior.

A test can be carried out with thevacuum pump to detect this kind offault. The preparations for this testare the same as for the pressure test- see 4.4.1.

4.4.4 Vacuum Test(for oil seal)

Oil seals tend to fail when subjected toa vacuum, i.e. the sealing lip lifts awayfrom the crankshaft during the piston'sinduction stroke because there is nointernal counterpressure.

An additional test can be carried outwith the vacuum pump to detect thiskind of fault.

• Close the vent screw (1) on thepump.

• Operate lever (2) until pressuregauge (3) indicates a vacuum of 0.4bar (5.8 psi).

Note: If the vacuum reading remainsconstant, or rises to no more than0.3 bar (4.25 psi) within 20 seconds,it can be assumed that the spacerflange and the diaphragm are in goodcondition. However, if the pressurecontinues to rise, the spacer flange orthe diaphragm must be replaced.

- After finishing the test, open the ventscrew.

- Carry out vacuum test for oil seals- see 4.4.4.

• Take out the screws (1).

• Remove the test flange (2) andgasket.

5.2 Ignition Module 5.2.1 Ignition Timing

Ignition timing is fixed and is notadjustable.

Since there is no mechanical wear inthese systems, ignition timing cannotget out of adjustment. However, aninternal fault in the circuit can alter theswitching point in such a way that aspark test will still show the system tobe in order although timing is outsidethe permissible tolerance. This willimpair engine starting and runningbehavior.

6. REWIND STARTER6.1 General

If the action of the starter ropebecomes very stiff and the roperewinds very slowly or not completely,it can be assumed that the startermechanism is mechanically in order butplugged with dirt. At very low outsidetemperatures the lubricating oil on therewind spring may thicken and causethe spring windings to stick together.This has a detrimental effect on thefunction of the starter mechanism. Insuch a case it is sufficient to apply afew drops of paraffin (kerosine) to therewind spring.

Then carefully pull out the starter ropeseveral times and allow it to rewind untilits normal smooth action is restored.

If clogged with dirt or pitch, the entirestarter mechanism, including the rewindspring, must be removed. Take specialcare when removing the spring.

Standard setting

To readjust the carburetor, start withthe standard setting:

- Carefully screw down both adjustingscrews until they are hard againsttheir seats.

Then make the following adjustments:

H = Open high speed screw (1)1 full turn

L = Open low speed screw (2)1 full turn

A slight correction may be necessary ifthe saw is used at high altitudes(mountains) or at sea level.

For corrections to high speedscrew (H):Use a tachometer - do not exceedmax. permissible engine speed.Engine can be damaged by lack oflubricant and overheating.

Maximum engine speed with bar andproperly tensioned chain:12,000 rpm

Note: If no tachometer is available, donot turn the high speed or low speedscrews beyond the standard setting tomake the mixture leaner.

- Fit a new gasket.

• Attach the throttle cable to thethrottle shaft.

10.6 Throttle Cable

- Check chain tension and correct asnecessary.

- Check air filter and clean ifnecessary.

- Start the saw - warm up the engine.

- Adjust idle speed correctly (chainmust not rotate).

Turn high speed screw (H) clockwisefor leaner mixture at high altitudes orcounterclockwise for richer mixture atsea level.

Turn screws very slowly and carefully- even slight adjustments produce anoticeable change in engine runningbehavior.

Note the following when makingcorrections to high speed screw:

The setting of the high speed screw(H) affects the maximum off-loadengine speed. If the setting is too lean,the maximum permissible enginespeed will be exceeded and increasethe risk of engine damage.

Adjusting idle speed

A correction at the low speed screw (L)usually necessitates a change in thesetting of the idle speed screw (LA).

Engine stops while idling:

Check standard setting

Turn idle speed stop screw (LA)clockwise until the chain beginsto run - then turn it back one half turn.

Chain runs while engine is idling:

Check standard setting

Turn the idle speed stop screw (LA)counterclockwise until the chain stopsrunning - and then turn it about anotherhalf turn in the same direction.

Erratic idling behavior, pooracceleration -even though low speed screw is oneturn open

Idle setting too lean. Turn the lowspeed screw (L) counterclockwise untilthe engine runs and acceleratessmoothly.
