Maintenance of Homelite chainsaws, main faults and their elimination

The preparation and refueling of the instrument must be approached very responsibly, since the fuel mixture is highly flammable and can cause a fire. For the fuel mixture itself, it is necessary to use gasoline with an octane number of at least 87 and preferable oil for two-stroke engines.

It is best to use AI-92 gasoline

It is also important to strictly maintain the ratio of components indicated on the oil packaging. Basically, you need to mix 50 parts gasoline and 1 part oil (50:1 ratio). Homelight chainsaws have an automatic chain lubrication system during operation

Before starting sawing, check the presence and amount of liquid in the tank.

Regarding the step-by-step instructions for starting the engine, you can read it in the instructions that come with each chainsaw. However, do not forget about running in a new saw. To do this, you need to start the engine, place the chainsaw on a flat surface and let it run for a while (2-3 minutes).

Chainsaw Csp 4016 DIY Repair

DIY chainsaw repair

What remains for our client to do? Chainsaw malfunctions are divided into two main groups: engine problems with its complete components and systems (ignition, fuel supply system, cylinder-piston group, exhaust system) and malfunctions of other components (chain brake, lubrication system, clutch, tire, etc.).

Engine malfunctions

When repairing a chainsaw with your own hands , you must act by elimination. Our client is left to inspect alternately the probable causes of the malfunction, starting with the development of those that take the least amount of time to check and eliminate (see here about the design and operation of a two-stroke engine).

Ignition system

. Almost all types of engine problems listed above can be caused by ignition system failures. Therefore, when they occur, it makes sense to start troubleshooting with a spark plug. This is all the more justified since the state of the latter can provide useful information about the operation of the fuel system. So, if a problem occurs, you need to unscrew the spark plug and inspect it.

The wire is disconnected and the spark plug is unscrewed with a special wrench.

If the spark plug is dry, this means that the problem is most likely not in the ignition system, but in the fuel mixture not entering the cylinder. You can wrap the spark plug back and get to work on the fuel system. If the spark plug is heavily splashed with fuel mixture, it means there is an excess of it. This may occur due to carburetor misadjustment or violation of starting rules. The spark plug is wiped and dried, the cylinder is dried by turning off the fuel supply and operating the starter. to ventilate the combustion chamber and remove excess fuel. Then install the spark plug in place and repeat the start.

The presence of a large amount of black carbon also indicates a malfunction in the fuel system.

The ratio between oil and gasoline in the mixture may be incorrect, the carburetor may not be adjusted, or low-quality oil may be used. The spark plug is washed in gasoline, cleaned of carbon deposits with a needle or awl, the electrodes are cleaned with fine sandpaper and replaced.

In all these cases, it would be a good idea to check the gap between the spark plug electrodes. Depending on its brand, it should be in the range of 0.5-0.65 mm. You also need to check the spark plug seal. If it is worn out or damaged, the tightness of the combustion chamber may not be ensured, which leads to a decrease in compression in the cylinder and problems in engine operation.

Even if, when checking the spark plug, there is good reason to believe that the fault is in the fuel system, you need to check the spark plug for the presence of a spark. At least to be sure that everything is in order. For this:

If there is no spark, you just need to replace the spark plug. If the new spark plug does not have a spark, you need to check the condition of the high-voltage wire for a break and contact with the spark plug.

The reason for the lack of a spark may also be a faulty ignition module or a violation of the gap between it and the flywheel magnetic circuit. It should be 0.2 mm. Violation of the gap becomes especially likely if the saw was previously disassembled and the flywheel and ignition module were removed. The gap is set using a 0.2 mm thick gasket placed between the flywheel boss and the ignition module. A faulty ignition module must be replaced.

Implemented know-how

The advantages of the tool:

  • a simple design that allows the owner, if he has certain skills, to perform maintenance and repair of the saw with his own hands;
  • the ability to safely saw wood of increased diameter due to the special design of the saw set;
  • the Safe-T-Tip casing installed at the end of the guide bar prevents injury to the operator when the saw is thrown back;
  • the likelihood of a rebound is significantly reduced by installing a special saw with a pitch of 1.27 mm;
  • The design of the connecting unit is designed to accommodate alternative busbars with a length of 410 to 500 mm.

The absence of a vibration damper is fully or partially compensated by the elastic coating of the handles. The autonomy of the saw is increased due to the increased volume of fuel and oil tanks. This modification had a slight effect on the dimensions of the case.

Video review of the Homelite chainsaw

Review of the Homlight CSP-4520 chainsaw:

Chainsaw Homelite CSP 3316 – presentation review:

Do-it-yourself repair of the CSP 3314 Homelite chainsaw:

Sergey Bukteev, 32 years old, Primorsky Krai:

In terms of price/quality ratio, Homlight is an excellent option. I bought it for harvesting and sawing firewood, I don’t use it very often, but it’s already clear that the tool is reliable and durable. In two years there was only one breakdown: one day the engine simply stopped starting. It turned out that the muffler's fastenings had become loose - it was simply dangling. Therefore, my advice is to regularly check all bolt and screw fasteners: you will save time, money, and nerves.

Ivan Kovalev, 41 years old, Severodvinsk:

I have had a Homelite chainsaw since 2013. I use it quite actively: I prepare firewood, saw timber, and use it for repairs. Overall, a very good and unpretentious unit. However, during operation it was not without problems. I had to adjust the carburetor several times, then I started to feel strong vibration - I had to take it to a service center. The overall impression is not bad, but you need to pay attention to the fastening of the parts.

Advantages: design, price, ergonomic handles, reliable engine;

Disadvantages: the carburetor mount is coming off, the spring on the anti-vibration system is broken.

Self-selection criteria

The range of chainsaw products of the HOMELITE brand consists of a large number of household and professional models, which allows the buyer to choose a tool that meets the stated requirements in all respects.

All developments of this manufacturer are characterized by the widespread use of new production technologies, ergonomics, design, European and world quality standards. The Homelite saw can be a worthy addition to the set of household tools used in private households and farms to mechanize labor-intensive work.

Homelite chainsaws, presented in a wide selection, differ in cost, drive power, and levels of technical equipment. This review will help you navigate the variety of branded assortments.

Owner reviews

For sawing firewood, I rented a saw from my work every year. Since the day before yesterday, I became the owner of my own tool called Homelite CSP 4016. For testing in the transverse and longitudinal direction, I sawed a beam of some dense wood with a length of 80 cm and a cross-section of 100x100 mm - the result is excellent. . It’s far from professional performance, but you shouldn’t demand too much from a budget car. Vadim

Homlight worked conscientiously for more than 4 years, and now, due to a cheap bearing, it has been inactive for the third week. I ordered it, I’m waiting, they promise not to delay it. The car's parameters are not bad, but the repair range is practically empty. Something needs to be done about this, since elite models of chainsaws are identical in price to used Zhiguli cars. Valery

Homelite chainsaws: quality tools at an affordable price

The first mention of the American company Homelite dates back to 1921, when engineer Charles Ferguson registered a new brand. By that time, Ferguson had become famous in his hometown as the inventor of the gasoline generator, the first model of which he installed at home. According to the engineer, the internal combustion engine makes it possible to create compact mobile devices and it would be a sin not to take advantage of such a chance. In the mid-20s, the company began producing several models of gasoline water pumps, and in 1949 the first Homelite chainsaw went on sale. However, this model was not in great demand, as it was distinguished by its heavy weight and low performance. The first popular model from Homelight was created in 1963; it had good performance characteristics and quite acceptable weight - about 6.5 kilograms.

Over its almost hundred-year history, Homelite has grown from a small workshop into a transnational holding. Today, the corporation's headquarters are located in Hong Kong, and its enterprises are scattered throughout the world. Most of the production capacity is localized in China, and Homelite chainsaws are also produced here. All of the manufacturer’s equipment meets modern standards for quality and safety, as evidenced by the relevant certificates. The company's owners pursue a fairly balanced pricing policy, which also affects the popularity of the brand.
