Stihl fs 36 DIY repair

Details: stihl fs 36 DIY repair from a real master for the site my.housecope.com.

With all the variety of modern building materials, wood remains very relevant. Therefore, lumberjacks, workers of landscaping services, summer residents are interested in tools for woodworking, including chainsaws.

The Stihl chainsaw is easy to operate, inexpensive in price, reliable, has a long service life.

Different people prefer different brands. Someone is interested in the Partner chainsaw, someone is interested in the Shtil brand device, someone else is interested in something else. But they all break down from time to time, and their breakdowns are both similar and different. Next, consider repairing a Stihl chainsaw with your own hands.

This brand is well known both among professionals and among individuals involved in arranging their own living space. The great popularity of the Stihl chainsaw determines the frequent practical use of this tool and makes us look for ways to effectively deal with its typical breakdowns.

The design of the Stihl chainsaw.

Before you start disassembling a faulty mechanism, you should prepare the appropriate tools. Since a chainsaw is a technically relatively simple device, this list is small and includes:

Screwdriver Set;
spanners;
set of socket wrenches;
igloo.

In order to carry out a full-fledged high-quality restoration of the working condition of the Stihl chainsaw with your own hands, it is necessary to accurately establish the causes of the breakdown. Since the specified chainsaw refers to mechanisms driven by an internal combustion engine, the main malfunctions are associated with this unit.

Video (click to play).

The most common in the operation of the Stihl chainsaw are the following malfunctions:

lack of engine start;
unstable operation of the internal combustion engine immediately after starting, as a result of which, after a short time of operation, the power unit shuts down spontaneously;
the running engine does not reach full power;
oil leaks.

Stihl chainsaw carburetor device

One of the frequent breakdowns of the saw device is also an open circuit in the working chain. But it does not apply to problems that arise during the operation of the motor system. Usually, repairing a broken chain boils down to replacing it with a new one.

The search for the malfunction that led to the failure of the chainsaw is carried out in the following order. First of all, the level of gasoline in the tank is checked. If everything is in order with the level, you should proceed to inspect the starting device. If the trigger does not show any signs of breakage, you must pay attention to the spark plug.

If, as a result of a thorough inspection and checking the correctness of the gap, it is found that the spark plug is completely serviceable, then the carburetor may be the cause of the malfunctions that force the chainsaw to be repaired. This often happens due to the fact that this device is corny clogged.

However, if the old plug is replaced with a new one, the carburetor is completely cleaned, and the chainsaw still does not start up or, once it is working, it stalls quickly, then a faulty cylinder-piston group (CPG) may be to blame for everything. In order to qualitatively check the entire group, you will have to spend some time, almost completely disassembling the specified system. In this case, the technical condition of the cylinder, piston and piston rings is checked.

And now we will consider each malfunction in a little more detail.

As mentioned earlier, the examination of a faulty sawing tool must begin with establishing the presence of gasoline in the fuel tank, as well as with determining the technical condition of the breather.

Repair of the Stihl chainsaw in case of a malfunction of the fuel supply system.

When checking the fuel level, it is imperative to open the gas tank cap.This must be done even if the owner of the tool has confidence that there is gas in the tank.

Often the saw cannot start due to the lack of fuel in the combustion chamber. The reason for this is most often the usual clogging of the breather - a special bypass valve, which serves to equalize the pressure in the tank with a gradual consumption of gasoline. In this case, the repair of the chainsaw comes down to careful cleaning of the breather with an ordinary sewing needle.

The cause of failure of the entire tool may be an inoperative trigger or problems in the ignition system. If it turns out that the starting device is operating normally, then you need to make sure that the spark plug is in good working order. In order to do this, the candle is turned out of the socket and carefully examined, paying attention to the presence of foreign plaque on its electrodes.

Chainsaw starter device.

It is worth noting that the presence of traces of a certain property in the place of spark formation speaks very eloquently about the sources of the "disease" of the entire launching system. Such a source, in particular, can be a carburetor. So, the complete absence of any signs of fuel on the plug (its complete dryness), most likely, indicates that the fuel does not pass into the combustion chamber due to the complete clogging of the carburetor.

If the gasoline is fixed on the chainsaw candle, and the cutting device itself does not work normally, then this indicates an excess of the air-fuel mixture. The reason for this condition, perhaps, is a malfunction in the carburetor adjustments, clogging of its nozzles, as well as improper start of the mechanism. In the case of a characteristic carbon deposit on the candle, one can speak with sufficient confidence about the improper functioning of the carburetor or about the use of low quality gasoline.

With all the above signs reflected on the spark plug, it is necessary to remove the carburetor and check its technical condition. If a blockage is found, the carburetor should be thoroughly cleaned, then the device should be adjusted according to the technological requirements and the gasoline used in the tank should be replaced. At the same time, you must always remember that the carburetor is a rather complex unit, consisting of many small components, parts and channels. Therefore, its repairs must be carried out with extreme care and accuracy.

In addition to restoring the carburetor, it is necessary to check the performance of the spark plug itself at the stand and, if necessary, set the correct gap in it. If you do not like the candle and its work at all, it is recommended to replace it with a new candle.

Sometimes the engine of the tool does not start or works with obvious interruptions and without reaching the rated and maximum power due to a malfunction of the cylinder-piston group. In this case, do-it-yourself chainsaw repairs are performed in this sequence.

4 bolts are loosened on the cylinder head, after which the cylinder is removed from the block. The piston is carefully checked for chips, scratches, scoring. Their presence is unacceptable and entails replacement of the piston. At the same time, there should not be the slightest mechanical damage on the cylinder itself. It can either be repaired by boring the mirror to fit the piston oversize, or replaced with a new one assembled with a piston.

Of great importance for ensuring optimal pressure in the combustion chamber is the absence of signs of wear on the piston housing and piston rings. The normal functioning of the chainsaw engine largely depends on this.It is possible to find out the degree of wear of the parts only after removing the piston group from the engine. The rings themselves should be tight enough and at the same time sit freely on the piston. The presence or absence of wear on the piston and rings can be verified experimentally. To do this, the piston inserted into the cylinder should be shaken slightly in different directions. Excessive piston free travel is most likely indicative of wear.To eliminate this defect, either the cylinder is bored and the repair parts are installed, or the entire CPG set is changed.Otherwise, the chainsaw will not develop the required power.Chainsaw repair is also required if there are problems with the lubrication system. Most often they consist in the absence of oil supply to the chain, as evidenced by the apparent dryness of the latter, or in oil leakage.Lubricating fluid is either poorly or not at all supplied to the chain, as a rule, due to clogging or complete clogging of the oil supply channels. To identify the places where the oil flow is blocked, it is necessary to carefully inspect the oil hose and its connection points. In addition, be sure to clean the oil filter.

Wik, I really need a link to the address of the workshop.
The “Calm” electric trimmer worked for us for 5 years without problems. But last year, due to the construction of a house, they started up the site, then, as they began to mow without rest, the engine probably could not stand it. It is necessary to repair it.

I quote myself
Probably boasted, jinxed. Or "do it yourself" gave results. Two seasons have passed, again the same breakdown. The starter drum has crumbled. (Maybe just a spare part "left" came across). This time I took it to the workshop, fortunately next to work. Issue price 600 rubles and 40 minutes. time.
My wife offered to buy a cheap electric one as a fallback.

Good morning. Please help me figure out the fs 38 trimmer - I got it not working, namely the drive shaft does not twist the shank. When disassembling - in the pipe there are 2 bushings and a drive shaft, from above the shank was fixed with a bolt through the pipe. I read here about some kind of retaining ring. I understand that when you press the gas, the drive shaft flies out and does not twist the shank, help me figure it out

Kain81, It is necessary to replace the shank assembly, article 4140-640-1402 costs 300-400r, the lock washer will not help. Make sure that there are no cracks on the rod where the shank is attached with a screw and do not forget to lubricate it before installation and every 25 hours of operation with gear lubricant

Everything, figured it out. The upper part of the pipe was bent and did not insert completely and was not clamped with a screw. Therefore, I poured the drive shaft

Good morning!
Connoisseurs, tell me what the problem is: gasoline stopped flowing into the so-called "nipple" on the carburetor. Pressing does not lead to anything. The fuel filter is new when you remove the upper part of the carburetor and press the gasoline spring. And most importantly: we climbed into the carburetor, t .k the trimmer worked only at idle, as soon as you press on the gas stalled immediately.

Dear members of the forum! Help with the repairs please! I'll start in order: I gave my neighbor a trimmer to mow the grass on the lawn for a day. There was a full tank of gasoline. (He has his own gasoline) After 40 minutes he comes and says: "At idle, it works, but how the gas stalls" It turned out that he poured a mixture in which there was 2 times more oil than needed (instead of 100ml-200ml). But this was already found out later, and before that he reached into the carburetor, disassembled it, screwed something up and now gasoline in the nipple on the carburetor does not come at all. Knowledgeable people help, otherwise the service is far away, and it is unjustifiably expensive there.

I'm not 38. But I'm trying to guess. I don’t know if the 38th filter is in the tank, then there is a hose, Well, I don’t know in the carb itself, I didn’t climb.

the filter in the fuel tank is new.

scham, See the hose. Is it not pinched, or vice versa, is it not damaged, maybe the air sucks. Then it will not upload either. If everything is fine, I will try to contact a specialist at the expense of karba.

valerich, thanks! The hose, most likely, is also in order, because if you remove the nipple and the gas pump, then gasoline goes. It seems to me that when he disassembled the carburetor, he could damage the gasket (there is a slight bend).

Has already applied. I think he will unsubscribe himself.

scham wrote:

Go, torture him, what exactly did he do with the carburetor - did he take it off, which covers he opened (if he opened it)
Which of the screws I twisted and how much.
So, without this information, nothing can be said at all.

Yes, and be sure to check the exhaust pipe on the muffler for soot clogging.

Anyway, give the scythe to your neighbor and let him go to the service. After all, what a habit of taking other people's things and poking around in them

... I took it, it didn’t work properly - give it back and say that it doesn’t work.
In short, okay, let's get information, let's think. I won't croak for now, maybe everything will be okay.
I will look from time to time, although I am sitting on a very frail Internet.

Stopudovo I agree. Climbed? Now let him take and repair to the state in which he took.

Yes, I would have done it, but the person has helped many times in different situations, and so it will not be very nice on my part.
says that he removed the upper part, where the nipple, pump, gasket and membrane. He screwed the fuel supply screw, but then set it as it was.

Could mix up the membrane with the gasket.
Take off the top cover, put the parts in order, take pictures - we'll take a look.

Olegych Already checked, first the gasket, then the membrane.
I think that it only makes sense to photograph the gasket, because there is a small hall on it.

It's all about the pump piston, it's in the carburetor. You need to remove the drosel, carefully! The piston will fly out, remove the spring. You will lubricate the piston with an autolock, and you will not plant it all the way, so that the piston does not interfere with the movement of the throttle shaft. you put it deep, you close the channels.

sorry that no one could help you)) this is my first time on the forum)))

scham, if you have any questions about the order of the carburetor assembly or adjustment, write! I will answer)))

scham wrote:

this is not a problem, the problem may still be in the quality of the fuel itself.What kind of gasoline, oil? How many days has it been active (how many days have passed since the fuel was prepared)? People, always pour fresh fuel! When oil enters gasoline, a chemical reaction occurs (decomposition of oil in gasoline) and due to external factors the survivability of the fuel depends.

scham, damn it) check the muffler before that. Maybe it's clogged?
”> - if anything, knock!

Uncle Syoma °, tell me what gap should there be between the roter and the stater?

Post number 126
... “It works at idle, but as you let the gas stall.”

Same problem.
If you have time to splash something like Car Cleaner into the “drawbar” with fully open throttle valve, it will blow up! Even WD 40 passes.
It is understood that there is not enough fuel for full power. By analogy with an autocarb, the main dosing system does not work. It seems so called.
This thing is a complete layman, but I would like to figure it out! My engine has been lying motionless since 07.2013 - something must have sour.

The fuel is fresh, only from the pump. The oil is correct and 1:50. The muffler is dry and clean. Start with 1-2 attempts.

Thanks for the tip - how to fix the problem, but - where and how is this piston, throttle, etc.

Where can you find the theory of this karba? Description, principle of operation of its systems.
Where to get hold of the explosion-scheme of this carb (well, at least a similar one)?
Possible malfunctions and remedies?

I would be very grateful for any information: literature, links, videos, etc.

I will share the diagrams, but I don’t know how “they put pavidlo into caramels”

As far as I know. On this technique, carburetors of the walbro type (or ZAMA, of the same type) are used. There are a lot of walbro schemes and descriptions on the internet.

I was soaring with this question from work with some kind of Internet - it was painfully unbearable: the engine does not work, an infection!
I came home - a large "coffin" with a "thick" cable quickly gave out a lot of useful information.
Sinus, valerich - thanks for your help!
Now I will dig in more detail, but if there are questions - I will be back!

Even in small gardens and parks, using electric trimmers can be very difficult, you have to use very long (and therefore very heavy) extension cords. The best way out of this situation is to use medium power benzotrimers (500-700 W). This is the category the FS 36 belongs to. This model is not only the simplest professional petrol trimmer produced by STIHL, but also one of the most compact.

The small size of the FS 36 is achieved through the use of a small round handle, while the entire control system is fixed and located on the axis of the apparatus. The handle, moving along the support tube, allows you to adjust the grip for the height of the person and the length of his arms. All this (in combination with the use of a curved support bar in the design) makes the trimmer very comfortable to work with.

But there is one subtlety: the use of a bent shaft imposes some restrictions on the nozzles. This happens because when the cutting tool becomes heavier (using knives instead of fishing line), the vibration increases, and in the place of inflection it generally increases many times. Therefore, relying on the power of the engine, you should not try to use the trimmer for heavy work, such self-activity will only lead to its breakdown.

It is inherent in man to ennoble the place in which he spends the lion's share of his time. Residents of cities resort to the services of designers, or they themselves try to change something in their home, buy new furniture, wallpaper, so that, having come home after a hard day, they can mentally rest and relax in a favorable environment.

Residents of their own homes outside the city have completely different concerns and requirements. It is necessary to mow shrubs, grass, various dead wood in a timely manner, carefully monitor the condition of the personal plot and garden.

It is clear that this requires a slightly different means of achieving comfort. And here a new brainchild of engineering comes to the fore - brushcutters from the Shtil company.

The history of this German brand dates back to 1926.At the initial stages of its development, the company was engaged in the production and sale of various components for washing and steam machines. It all began, like many.

I want to share my experience in operating the STIHL FS 36 and FS 38 trimmers, maybe someone will be useful. My first trimmer FS 36 1999 onwards, assembled in the USA, worked for 7 seasons in three areas, burned about 60-70 liters of mixture (120-140 hours) in native oil in a ratio of 1:40, 95 Sibneft gasoline. There were no problems with the engine, I didn't even change the candle, I cleaned the foam rubber air filter and that's it. The 4130 FS 36 engine is quite interesting - the front starter, cantilever crankshaft, single ring piston, carburetor and muffler are located at the rear. At the same time, it has the largest working volume of 30 cubic cm. from the trim tabs and a 0.5 liter tank on the side. It is very high-torque at medium revs and the exhaust sound is like a b / p "Friendship"))) And the body is narrow, which is more convenient to work. Disassembled from TO on FS 36, lubricated the flexible shaft with ALPINA gear grease and the rod tip, changed the bobbin. The line used a round 2.4 mm ALPINA, an excellent line, and it was not better for sale at that time. Shtilevskaya 2.4 mm will be worse. For 7 years.

Lawn maintenance is simple: watering the grass is enough, preventing a variety of weeds from appearing and periodically mowing. And if the first two jobs do not cause any particular difficulties, then difficulties arise with a haircut. A scythe is traditionally used to cut the grass, but it is a tool that takes experience and considerable experience to handle.

Lawn lawn strife. If in front of the windows of the cottage there is a small well-groomed lawn next to a flower garden, sometimes a manual mechanical tool is enough. Although, judging by the reviews, summer residents still prefer an electric tool. But if the plot has just been acquired and the flowerbed still needs to be formed, or when the dacha has been inherited, and the lawns are in a deplorable state, light equipment is not enough.
