Introduction
This service manual contains detailed descriptions of all typical repair and servicing procedures for models BG 45, 46, 55, 55, 65, 85, 85, SH 55, 85, which are based on the series 4140 powerhead. powerhead. You will find detailed descriptions de scriptions of procedures for servicing and repairing engine components in the service manual for the “Series 4140 Powerhead“. You should make use of the illustrated parts lists while carrying out repair work. They show the installed positions of the individual components and assemblies. Refer to the latest edition of the relevant parts list to check the part numbers of any replacement parts. A fault on the machine may have several causes. To help locate the fault, consult the chapter on "Troubleshooting" in this manual and the "STIHL Service Training System" for all assemblies. Refer to the "Technical "Technical Information" bulletins for engineering changes which have been introduced since publication of this service manual. Technical information bulletins also supplement the parts list until a revised edition is issued.

Safety Precautions
If the engine is started up in the course of repairs or maintenance work, observe all local and countryspecific safety regulations as well as the safety precautions and warnings in the instruction manual. Gasoline is an extremely flammable fuel and can be explosive in certain conditions. Improper handling may result in burns or other serious injuries. Warning! Do not bring any fire, flame, spark or other source of heat near the fuel. All work with fuel must be performed outdoors only. Spilled fuel must be wiped away immediately.

Tightening Torques
DG and P (Plastoform) screws are used in polymer and light metal components. These screws form a permanent thread when they are installed for the first time. They can be removed and installed as often as necessary without impairing the strength of the screwed assembly, providing the specified tightening torque is observed. For this reason it is essential to use a torque wrench.

Use the following procedure when refitting a DG or P screw in an existing thread: – Place the screw in the hole and rotate it counterclockwise until it drops down slightly. – Tighten the screw clockwise to the specified torque. This procedure ensures that the screw engages properly in the existing thread and does not form a new thread and weaken the assembly.

max. 600 rpm
DG screws
max. 500 rpm
Important: Do not mix up screws with and without binding head

Rewind Starter General
Install in the reverse sequence.
Troubleshooting,
– Clean the sealing faces before installation.
If the action of the starter rope becomes very stiff and the rope rewinds very slowly or not completely, it can be assumed that the starter mechanism is in order but plugged with dirt. At very low outside temperatures the lubricating oil on the rewind spring may thicken and cause the spring windings to stick together. This has a detrimental effect on the function of the starter mechanism. In such a case it is sufficient to apply a few drops of a standard solvent-based degreasant (containing no chlorinated or halogenated hydrocarbons) to the rewind spring. Carefully pull out the starter rope several times and allow it to rewind until its normal smooth action is restored.
– Install new exhaust gaskets.

– Pull out the starter rope about 10 cm and hold the rope rotor steady. Removing – While still holding the rotor steady, take three turns of the rope off the rotor. – Pull out the starter rope a little further and then let go of the rotor. The rotor spins back so that the rewind spring is no longer under tension.
The rewind spring must not be under tension. :
Remove the spring clip (1) from the starter post.
:
Remove the washer (2) and pawl (3).
– Carefully pull the rope rotor off the starter post. – Replace the broken or worn starter rope, 7.6 Installing – Coat the bore in the rope rotor with STIHL special lubricant, 12.

– Remove the pieces of broken spring from the rope rotor and starter cover. – Before installing, lubricate the new spring with a few drops of STIHL special lubricant, 12.
Then grip the rewind spring with pointed nose pliers about 10 mm from the end of the outer loop and place it in the starter.
:
Check the distance of the inner spring loop from the hub and correct if necessary. Dimension "A" must not be more than 2 mm.

A V 7 8 1 A R 2 3 9
:
Make a loop in the unwound starter rope. Grip the rope close to the rotor and use it to turn the rotor six full turns clockwise.
The starter grip must sit firmly in the rope guide bush without drooping to one side. If this is not the case, tension the spring by one additional turn.
– If the starter rope is worn, relieve tension of rewind spring, 7.4. Pull the end of the rope out of the rotor and undo the knot. Then pull the worn rope out of the starter grip, housing and rotor.
When the starter rope is fully extended, it must still be possible to rotate the rope rotor at least another half turn before maximum spring tension is reached. If this is not the case, pull the rope out, hold the rope rotor steady and take off one turn of the rope. A V 8 8 1 A R 2 3 9
:
Hold the rope rotor steady.
:
Pull out the rope with the starter grip and straighten it out.
– Hold the starter grip firmly to keep the rope tensioned. – Let go of the rope rotor and slowly release the starter grip so that the rope winds itself onto the rotor.

Erratic idling behavior – Idle setting is too rich. Turn the low speed screw (L) clockwise (about a quarter turn) until the engine runs and accelerates smoothly. It is usually necessary to change the setting of the idle speed screw (LA) after every correction to the low speed screw (L).
It is possible that the standard setting produces the highest engine rpm in both the above cases.
Adjusting idle speed :
Carefully turn the low speed screw (L) clockwise until it is against its seat, then open it one full turn counterclockwise.

Tank Vent General
Correct operation of the carburetor is only possible if atmospheric pressure and internal fuel tank pressure are equal at all times. This is ensured by the tank vent. In the event of trouble with the carburetor or the fuel supply system, always check the tank vent and replace it if necessary.
Testing the tank vent :
On carburetors with a short limiter cap: Line up the new cap for the high speed screw (H) against the rich stop and press it on only as far as the second noticeable detent position.
:
The stop limits the adjustment range of the high speed screw (H) to a 3/4 turn. Do not press the cap against the carburetor body as it will otherwise be damage.
:
– Carry out standard setting, 9.4.2
On carburetors with a long limiter cap: Line up the new cap for the high speed screw (H) against the rich stop so that the high speed screw (H) can only be rotated a 3/4 turn clockwise. Push on the limiter cap until it butts against the carburetor body.
Carry out standard setting,

– Open the tank cap slowly and drain the tank.

Fuel Tank General
Always use a new sealing ring.
Fuel tank
Install in the reverse sequence.
The fuel tank is part of the inner fan housing and cannot be replaced separately. If the fuel tank is damaged, replace the complete inner fan housing. The diaphragm pump draws fuel out of the tank and into the carburetor via the fuel hose. Any impurities mixed with the fuel are retained by the pickup body (filter). The fine pores of the filter eventually become clogged with minute particles of dirt. This restricts the passage of fuel and results in fuel starvation. Always observe all safety precautions when working on the fuel system, 2.
