Frequently Asked Questions - 362WS Shindaiwa
What type of fuel to use for the Shindaiwa 362WS?
Use a mix of unleaded gasoline and 2-stroke oil in the recommended proportions (usually 50:1). Refer to the manual for the exact ratio.
How to sharpen the chain of the 362WS?
Use a round file suitable for the chain pitch (3/8"). File each tooth following the original angle, usually 30° to 35°. Sharpen regularly for efficient cutting.
What to do if the saw does not start?
Check the fuel level, ignition (spark plug), and choke. Make sure the chain brake is disengaged. If the problem persists, clean the air filter.
How to adjust the chain tension?
Loosen the guide bar nuts, turn the adjustment screw to tension the chain until it touches the underside of the bar, then tighten the nuts. The chain should not sag.
What is the lifespan of the guide bar and chain?
It depends on usage. Replace the guide bar when worn or cracked. Change the chain every 3 to 5 sharpenings or when it no longer grips properly.
How to maintain the air filter?
Remove the filter and clean it with soapy water or solvent. Dry it completely before reinstalling. Replace it if it is too dirty.
Does the Shindaiwa 362WS have a chain brake?
Yes, it is equipped with a chain brake that activates automatically in case of kickback or manually via the front hand guard.
What oil to use for chain lubrication?
Use a special adhesive chain oil, biodegradable if possible. Never use used oil.
How to store the saw for long periods?
Empty the fuel tank and run the engine until it stops. Clean the saw, lubricate the chain, and store it in a dry place.
