The owner of the suburban area can not do without a gasoline trimmer or trimmer . But in the process of its operation there can be situations when this unit for some reason ceases to start. And there can be many reasons for this. Let's find out why the petrol trimmer does not start.
Why the trimmer is not started - the reasons
To determine why a gasoline trimmer does not start properly or stalls constantly, it is necessary to consistently check the operation of all the main components of the unit. It is especially important to do this after a long storage of the gasoline pump. So, the main reasons for this behavior of the trimmer are:
- The culprit of the fact that the gasoline does not start, can be a poor-quality oil-gasoline fuel mixture. Cook it must be strictly according to the instructions. Saving here is completely inappropriate, since it can lead to the failure of the entire piston trimmer group. Do not prepare too much fuel mixture, as excess gasoline over time will lose its quality.
- You should know that gasoline trim tabs of brands such as Stihl, Husgvarna and some others do not start, if they fill in cheap gasoline with a small octane number. Therefore for such units it is necessary to use only high-quality high-octane fuel.
- If the trimmer stalls at start-up, then perhaps a candle is flooded. In this case, it is necessary to unscrew it and dry it well for half an hour. Then drain the excess fuel that is in the chamber, clean the spark plug from the carbon, put it in its place and try to start the gasoline pump.
- If your new gasoline trimmer does not start, the cause may be a lack of spark. And it happens because the nest where the candle is located is dry and the fuel does not light up. It should be slightly moistened with a few drops of gasoline threaded connection of the candle.
- Gasoline trimmer can stall because of clogging of air or fuel filters. It is best to replace such elements with new ones.
- The discharge channel and breather can also become clogged. After cleaning these trim elements, it will be possible to start the unit without any problems.
- Another reason why a petrol trimmer does not start, even when there is a spark, can be clogging the carburetor. To clean the channels and jets, it is necessary to blow them out with compressed air with the help of a compressor. You can use it to clean the carburetor and a special rinse.
- If carburettor gaskets are worn out, you need to change them. And if the leakproofness of this device will have to determine the defective part of the carburetor and replace it.
- The trimmer may not start due to the wear of the piston group. However, it is better to change such details of the gasoline pump in the service center.
