I have an older model 026 (1993) which I purchased used but was fortunate enough to have the original sales receipt and owners manual included with the saw. In the carburetor adjustment section of the owner’s manual the Max engine speed with cutting attachment is listed as 12500 RPM. In the specification section of the same owners manual the max speed listing is for 13000 RPM. In the service manual which is dated 1999 the listing is for 14000 RPM.
I would like to get the carb set up without damaging the saw by running it to lean just not sure which speed is correct for this year model saw. Any help you guys could give would be appreciated. Not sure if this matters but I am currently running a 18” bar and .325 chain.
