how do I do a basic tuning for a poulan pro 295? Just above the pull start are two access holes, one labeled "T", the other "L H". The saw is running pretty good, however I feel like it is not getting fast enough rpm's at full throttle. I remember watching a guy do a quick adjustment to the rpm's once and I think he was accessing the "L H" hole. Unfortunately I was not paying attention and did not ask questions, but he seemed to be working on the speed. Thanks, Ian
H is the adjustment you need. If you can see a slot-head screw, you can adjust it--some are blanked off to prevent any adjustment by the user. Proper adjustment is: engine should 4-stroke at no-load (engine warmed up), but smooth out with light load (cutting wood). Make sure the air cleaner is not obstructed as well as the muffler is not plugged.
The `T` screw is your throttle control,the `L` & `H` is low and high speed. The normal procedure is to turn these two screws in full and then unscrew one full turn each. You start the saw and adjust the `L` screw gradually either way until it runs, do the same with the `H` screw while reving the engine. On some carbs. this can be tricky and needs a lot of patience, so if you are happy with the low speed only adjust the high speed. Hope this helps. Stephen.

I had water in my hydraulic fluid in my Komatsu D39P dozer. I opened the drain plug, drained the resevoir and pumped as much of the contaiminated fluid as I could out through the filer port. I refilled the system through the resevoir and bled the cylinders through the line connections until clear hydraulic fluid was coming out.
The fluid is now clear, the reservoir is full but the machine will not push or engage the tracks properly. It acts like an air/vapor lock either in the transmission or torque converter. I was told this was a self bleeding system, but how do I get the air out? There are bleeders near one of the filters and I've tried that. I don't have a manual. Is there a sequence for bleeding this system?
