SHOP MANUAL USE  
613GC SERVICE MANUAL  
Shop Manual Use  
This manual contains all the technical information necessary for carrying out repairs on the  
613GC cut-off saw. For safe, efficient work, it is of prime importance that the values indicated  
be adhered to. Routine periodic maintenance is covered in the operator’s manual included with  
each cut-off saw.  
General Shop Rules  
Always use the right tools for the job, otherwise components may be damaged.  
Use a plastic dead blow mallet to separate parts attached solidly to each other.  
Mark mating parts as a reassembly reference.  
Keep component parts together as a group. Assemble screws and nuts into appropriate  
subgroups.  
When reassembling, clean all parts carefully, lubricate moving parts and replace all oil seals,  
orings, gaskets, washers and self-locking nuts.  
For best results, use only original ICS® replacement parts.  
General Recommendations  
Some procedures in this manual require the use of special tools. A complete tool kit for ICS®  
cut-off saws is available from ICS®.  
Detailed carburetor maintenance and overhaul information is available in Walbro’s  
or by calling 1.989.872.2131.

23. CARBURETOR TUNING  
23 This section covers carburetor tuning. Included in this section are basic settings,  
idle speed adjustment, and complete adjustment.  
The carburetor has been set at the factory for optimal performance and compliance  
to EPA Phase I emissions standards. However, minor adjustments may be required in  
certain conditions, such as high elevation.  
NOTES:  
• These cut-off saws are equipped with an electronic speed limiter, as part of  
the ignition system. This will prevent the saw from going above 12,500 rpm.  
Attempting to set the carburetor mixture to increase the speed or power beyond  
this limit may seriously damage the engine.  
• Always check the air filter, pre filter, fuel filter, and spark plug before making  
carburetor tunings and clean or replace if necessary

26. FUEL SYSTEM LEAKS  
613GC SERVICE MANUAL  
26 This section covers testing the  
fuel system for leaks. Engine  
starvation can result from a  
leak or malfunction of any of  
the main components of the  
fuel system. The five main  
components are the fuel tank,  
fuel tank breather, fuel filter,  
delivery tubes, and carburetor.  
26.1 Remove and inspect the fuel filter.  
A
Replace the fuel filter if there is any  
foreign material in the felt or the  
internal screen.  
26.2 Test the main fuel pick-up tube for  
leaks.  
A
B
Install the pressure gauge and bulb.  
Pressurize the tube to 7 psi (0.5 bar).  
C If the pressure does not maintain,  
separate the fuel line from the  
carburetor.

26. FUEL SYSTEM LEAKS  
D Plug one end of the main fuel pick-up  
tube.  
E
Re-pressurize the tube to 7 psi  
(0.5 bar).  
F
Replace the tube if pressure is not  
maintained.  
G If the main fuel pick-up tube does  
maintain pressure, then the leak ha  
been isolated to the carburetor. Refer  
to the Walbro Diaphragm Carburetor  
Service Manual.  
26.3 The fuel tank breather stabilizes the  
pressure in the fuel tank preventing  
both excessive pressure, which  
could flood the engine, and negative  
pressure, which could starve the  
engine of fuel.  
26.4 Fuel tank breather is located inside  
the air filter compartment.

26.5 Testing the fuel tank breather.  
A
Attach the pressure gauge and bulb  
to the main fuel pick-up tube at the  
carburetor. Pressurize the tube to 4.5  
psi (0.3 bar).  
B
The pressure should reduce to nearly  
0 psi (0 bar) over about 3 seconds.  
26.6 If the pressure does not reduce to  
0 psi, disassemble or replace the  
breather.  
A
B
Clean the parts with solvent or fuel.  
Assemble in reverse order.  
C Make sure that the spring taper is  
oriented in the correct direction.

A
Plug cylinder pulse tube.  
27.2 Install the exhaust seal flange.  
27.3 Block one of the flange tubes with a  
rubber plug.  
27.4 Install the pressure gauge and bulb.  
27.5 Pressurize the crankcase to 7 psi (0.5  
bar).  
27.6 If the pressure does not remain the  
same, use soapy water to find the  
leak.  
NOTE: It is recommended that this test  
be performed after an engine  
rebuild
