Features of operation of cheap Chinese chainsaws of the Goodluck brand

The transfer of the production of Chinese industrial enterprises to a higher quality level had a positive effect on sales ratings and the demand for manufactured products in general. In particular, the domestic chainsaw market offers a number of inexpensive models with a fairly high level of reliability for budget equipment.

The list of popular Chinese-made household appliances includes Goodluck chainsaws. The model range is relatively small, which allowed designers to pay more attention to improving technical characteristics and extending the service life of their designs.

Goodluck chainsaws: features, technical parameters, overview of the main models

The efficiency of sawing wood depends on the quality of the chainsaw. The Goodluck company takes care of this and produces semi-professional and professional garden devices. They are suitable for private use, industrial work, and logging.

Benefits of Goodluck chainsaws

Each Goodluck chainsaw is high performance, power and quality. It is distinguished by its reliable design and availability of spare parts. Maintenance and repair of equipment can be carried out at home. The equipment can be used in any conditions. With proper maintenance of products, they will last a long time.

Performance properties

Created on the basis of Japanese analogues, Goodluck brand household appliances are characterized by:

• high quality of materials used;
• using the most modern production technologies to date;
• full quality control of assembly at all stages.

The Goodluck chainsaw, regardless of power and level of technical equipment, is manufactured in accordance with the requirements of mechanical engineering, assembly and operational standards, and recommendations of safety regulations.

Carburetor adjustment Goodluck 4500 and 5200

The carburetor on the Goodluck GL 5200 and 4500 chainsaws is a membrane carburetor with three adjustment screws. Each of which is responsible for operating the engine in a given range:

• L – idling and low speed (mixture quality);
• H – average and maximum (amount of mixture);
• T - regulates the throughput of the carburetor diffuser by changing the position of the throttle valve.

First of all, screw L is adjusted, the standard setting is 2 - 2.5 turns from the twisted state with the engine turned off, screw H is set to the same position. After the standard settings are set, the saw must be started and allowed to run for 2 - 3 minutes, the engine will warm up and the carburetor will be ready for adjustment.

After starting, turn the speed screw to find the maximum engine speed at idle. Next, the screw is loosened counterclockwise a quarter turn. Precise adjustment of screw H is only possible with the help of a special tachometer; if it is not available, then the adjustment is carried out by ear. A correctly adjusted saw should work monotonously at maximum speed and maintain a stable speed. The engine should not run too fast.

In conclusion of the article, we suggest that you read the reviews of real owners of Goodluck 5200 and Goodluck 4500.

Process description

If the chainsaw carburetor is not adjusted and it is not possible to start the chainsaw, then the adjustment begins by installing screws (L) and (H) to the standard setting position. This is 1/5 turn of the screws until they are fully tightened. After which, you need to start the engine, let it run a little and warm up. The next step is setting the low speed mode. Optimal engine operation at low end can be achieved by adjusting the screw (L) and idle speed (T). To do this, first screw (L) is tightened until maximum engine speed is reached, then released by 1/4, and screw (T) is used to return the idle speed to normal.

After adjusting the operation at the “lower” range, the traction and maximum engine speed are adjusted. To do this, slowly tighten the screw (H) and check the speed using the readings of the electronic tachometer.

An important step is to check the saw in all operating modes after adjusting it; to do this, you need to let the chainsaw cool down, and then start it according to the cold tool starting algorithm. If the saw starts up normally and idles smoothly, you need to check how it cuts. If during the inspection process shortcomings in the power of the chainsaw are discovered, then it is necessary to repeat the adjustment of the screw (H) by unscrewing it and checking the traction in operation.

Model GL4500M

A modern chainsaw intended only for private use, this chainsaw will not work for a long time in difficult conditions, because it has a limited resource and safety margin. Suitable for annual firewood collection and various site maintenance tasks. It is not recommended to use the Goodluck 4500 chainsaw in construction, as it is quite bulky and heavy compared to analogues.

Appearance and quality of parts

Externally, the chainsaw looks decent, plastic body, aluminum handle, convenient controls, but at first glance it is noticeable that cheap materials were used as much as possible in production.

After the first days of use, the quality of the materials reminds itself, scratches appear on the body, because the plastic is not shock-resistant, the handle bends, the shock absorbers break. It is especially unpleasant when the saw accidentally falls. The consequence of a fall is often the breaking of the chain brake control lever, since it is made of fragile plastic. This breakdown is the most common reason why owners of the Goodluck GL4500M chainsaw contact a service center.

If you do not take into account the quality of the body parts, then overall the saw is normal. It starts easily, picks up speed, has the ability to adjust the oil supply for chain lubrication and the quality of the fuel mixture

It is also important that it is easy to find spare parts for this chainsaw, and if you have some experience and tools, you can carry out repairs yourself, but let’s not deviate from the topic and return to specifics

Technical specifications

The maximum power achieved at 9000 rpm is 2 kW. The saw is powerful and resourceful, which indicates high productivity. The engine is 45 cm3, not the largest volume, but it is quite enough. The Goodluck 4500 can be equipped with a saw set with a maximum length of 50 cm.

For a household chainsaw, a tire longer than 40 cm is not required, since this length is sufficient to perform all necessary tasks. Installing a longer tire and chain will add financial costs to operation, since a 50 cm tire costs more than a 40 cm one. Everything is the same with chains.

Fuel consumption depends on specific operating conditions and carburetor settings; based on operating experience, we can say that on a full tank the saw runs for about 30 minutes, during which time you can cut 0.5 cubic meters of wood with logs.

Based on the characteristics, it is clear that the most pleasant criteria are price and power. 2.7 hp for 7,000 rubles - a good option. Among the disadvantages is the weight, almost 5 kg, and this is without the saw set and filling fluids, with them the weight will be about 7 kg, and this is a lot for a household-grade saw.

Equipment

The scope of delivery includes the following:

• chainsaw;
• headset (chain, bus);
• set of keys for maintenance (adjustment screwdriver, two hex keys, combination wrench);
• toothed hook (necessary for ease of cutting tree trunks);
• transport protective case;
• measuring container for preparing the fuel mixture;
• user guide.

This complete set allows you to start working fully with the chainsaw immediately after purchase, if necessary, tighten the chain or eliminate minor faults. More details about the Goodluck chainsaw, its configuration and purpose are described in the video. Video with comments from the author; by watching it you can learn how to properly assemble the saw and prepare it for work.

About the manufacturer

The full name of the company is Goodluck Science & Technology Co. Its founding date can rightfully be considered 2001. The main direction of its activity is the production of equipment and tools, the specialization of which is site care. It is worth noting that the direct homeland of the manufacturer is China.

The company annually produces a huge number of chainsaws and electric saws, electric trimmers, lawn mowers, brush cutters, brush cutters, pumps (water) and other such equipment. Chainsaw or electric saw, which is better?

An important, one might even say the main advantage of the company’s products is that every part used in its production is made exclusively from high-quality material. Which, through numerous checks, meets all the necessary conditions and standards regarding safety and reliability.

Moreover, due to the fact that all of his equipment has a unique function, namely supplying oil on an automatic basis, the immediate life of the equipment is significantly extended.

In addition, the manufacturer has equipped its products with the highest power, minimal noise level, a fairly small weight category, as well as anti-vibration, which is a godsend for every owner of electrical equipment.

In addition, each individual product of the company has not only durability, but a modern design. The company is in rapid development every day, as absolutely everything, even minor details regarding the production of electrical equipment, are taken into account and improved. Just imagine, every year more than eight hundred models of various types come out of the manufacturer’s machine.

What you need to have for setup

Each carburetor owner must have the necessary tools to adjust this system. There are three adjustment screws that are located on the body of the device. They have their own markings:

• L - screw for correcting low speeds.
• H - screw for adjusting high speed.
• T - regulates idle speed, in most cases used for experiments.

Chainsaw air filter

Before adjusting the carburetor, you need to prepare the device:

1. The engine warms up, that is, it starts about 10 minutes before repairs, and turns off when starting work (see how to start a chainsaw).
2. The air filter is checked and washed.
3. The chain is stopped by turning screw T until it stops (see chain oil).

To carry out a safe repair, you need to prepare a flat surface where you can carefully place the device and turn the chain in the opposite direction. Need a tachometer. It determines whether there is a malfunction in the carburetor. When turning the screws, the sound should be perfect and absolutely smooth. If you notice squealing notes, the mixture is oversaturated.

Replacing worn parts

If the gear has a replaceable ring, you should carefully check the condition of the base. If nicks, chips, deep scratches, changes in geometry or corrosion are detected, not only the crown, but the entire part should be replaced. The combined operation of worn and new parts in one assembly will lead to a reduction in the service life of the entire assembly. The risk of jamming or circuit breakage increases significantly.

In addition, the vibration load on the clutch, transmission and engine of the device will increase. The same factors arise during prolonged operation of one circuit.

Folk “craftsmen” sometimes revive a stretched chain sheet by simply throwing out one or a link and re-pressing the axles. In this case, the chainsaw needs to replace the sprocket.

You should also not change the diameter of the gears (and, accordingly, the number of teeth). When working with an enlarged or reduced sprocket, forces arise in the transmission and engine that the designers of the device did not expect. This will shorten the tool's service life and will not improve its performance.

Despite the presence in the design of the chainsaw of safety systems that instantly stop the movement of the blade when it breaks or the tire is destroyed and protects torn links from scattering, it is better not to lead to such situations. The need to replace the gear is only increased by safety requirements.

How to adjust the carburetor on chainsaws

To understand how to properly adjust the carburetor on a chainsaw, you need to see it, and therefore we invite the reader to pay attention to the example below

PHOTO: rmnt.ru Arrows indicate carburetor adjustment screws

To make the adjustment, you only need a slotted screwdriver, but it will not be possible to perfectly accurately adjust the carburetor without a tachometer (of course, if the person is not a mechanic or an experienced professional driver). Now let's try to understand how to adjust the carburetor in a given situation.

PHOTO: shukur.ru This slotted screwdriver is quite enough to adjust the carburetor of a chainsaw

How to adjust the carburetor of a chainsaw if it doesn’t start at all

A fairly common problem in cases where a “master” from the “I know everything” series tries to get into the settings with hands that do not grow from his shoulders. In such a case, there are standard screw positions from which you can “dance” further. First you need to tighten both screws completely (don't be too zealous). Next unscrew:

• screw L – one turn;
• screw H – one and a half turns.

PHOTO: withoutahitch.com.au Each screw is marked and there are holes in the housing for adjustment

As for the idle speed screw, the throttle must first be completely closed (screw T turned out). After this, you need to turn it one and a half turns clockwise and try to start the engine. If it doesn’t work, gradually add a quarter turn at a time until starting. When the engine starts running, the position of the idle screw is adjusted so that the internal combustion engine does not stall, but the chain remains in place.

PHOTO: xoznik.ru After this, the engine must be started and run for 8-10 minutes. During operation, preliminary adjustment of the idle speed is possible. When the engine is warm, you can begin fine tuning.

How to correctly and accurately adjust the carburetor: step-by-step instructions

To make the information easier to perceive, we suggest looking at it on the basis of photographic examples with descriptions of actions in tabular form. The basis is a chainsaw with initial settings.

Illustration Description of action Adjustment begins with screw L (low speed). With its help, you need to find the maximum engine speed. There is no need to rush here - the change in speed does not occur instantly when the screw is rotated. When the maximum speed is found, screw L must be turned counterclockwise a quarter turn. A simple scale drawn by hand on a regular piece of paper will help with this. So the master will not be mistaken by a millimeter with the amount of rotation. When unscrewing the screw of the low speed jet, it is possible that the engine will start to stall

In this case, it is necessary to add speed using the idle speed screw (T). During the adjustment process, in addition to the speed standards, you should also pay attention to the exhaust. Blue smoke will indicate that the mixture is too rich, and a crackling sound from the muffler will indicate that it is too lean. It is better to adjust the maximum speed nozzle screw using a tachometer, but you can do it the old fashioned way. To do this, press the throttle all the way, then use screw H to find the maximum speed, and then turn it a quarter clockwise

But it should be remembered that maximum speed is dangerous for the engine, which means this procedure must be performed as quickly as possible. After making all the adjustments, you can test the tool by checking the operation of the engine in all modes

Chinese chainsaws costing up to 10,000 rubles

The range from 7,000 to 10,000 rubles is the most competitive and the most risky for both the buyer and the manufacturer. For a buyer in this price category, the loss of money from purchasing a defective saw will seem too painful; the manufacturer has to take into account the increased demands of future owners on the one hand and the competition of brands on the other. Therefore, despite the fact that the purchase amount of 7,000 rubles and above is not yet a guarantee against problems, in this segment there is already a struggle for the buyer’s wallet. I’m glad that you can buy a working and reliable saw with up to 5,000 rubles, or with any other money. The question is who is willing to pay how much.

Fuel supply system repair

Fuel may not enter the cylinder for the following reasons:

• Fuel filter is dirty. You should remove the fuel hose and check how the fuel flows. If the stream is weak, the filter may need to be cleaned. It is taken out through the filler hole of the fuel tank and cleaned; in case of severe contamination, it is replaced with a new one. As a preventative measure, it is recommended to replace the fuel filter once every three months.
• Clogged breather (hole in the fuel tank cap). They also check by disconnecting the hose; if clogged, clean it with a needle.
• Lack or insufficient fuel. There may be several reasons for the malfunction. The first reason is a clogged air filter. Air stops flowing into the carburetor in the required quantity, and therefore, due to the fuel mixture being too rich, engine operation is disrupted. The dirty filter is carefully removed, cleaned and rinsed in water, then dried and replaced.

Another reason is incorrect carburetor adjustment. Adjustment is made with three screws.

Timely replacement of the fuel filter guarantees a complete fuel supply

The fuel hose and choke actuator must fit tightly to the fittings

The throttle cable must be in place.

During work, you must use the instructions, otherwise you can only make things worse.

And the last reason is a violation of the integrity of the membrane or clogging of the carburetor channels.

To repair a carburetor yourself, you need to become familiar with all its parts.

All parts must be clean, dry and in good working order.

Assessment of the condition of the cylinder-piston group

Often the engine does not start or does not operate at full capacity due to low pressure in the cylinder. It can be caused by wear of the piston or cylinder, stuck piston rings, or worn bearings. You can partially examine the condition of the cylinder-piston group (CPG) by removing the muffler and looking into the opened hole.

A compression gauge placed in the spark plug hole will help measure the compression in the engine - based on the measurement results, we can also talk about the condition of the CPG. Accurate data is obtained only after complete disassembly of the mechanism. If the piston is chipped or scratched, it needs to be replaced. The piston ring must be clean, free of carbon deposits, and be exactly in place.

Wear of the piston and crank mechanism is considered a serious problem

Based on the results of compression measurements, one can judge the condition of the CPG parts

Advantages and disadvantages

The proposed branded assortment of branded chainsaws organically combines an affordable price for a wide range of customers and full-fledged performance characteristics.

The owners note:

• absence of winter starting problems typical for gasoline engines;
• hassle-free access to settings for internal and removable sawing equipment;
• unpretentiousness of power units to the quality of gasoline and the ability to use a wide range of motor and chain oils of similar purposes from other manufacturers;
• The attachment point for the guide bar of Goodluck chainsaws allows you to equip the tool with more advanced and durable saw sets from other brands.

A number of reviews contain a number of complaints about the quality of threaded fasteners, the reliability of the manual starter and chain tensioner, and the imperfect design of the air intake filter.

Characteristics

The maximum power of the Goodluck 4500 gasoline saw reaches 2 kW - 9000 rpm. This is an extremely high figure compared to many analogues, given the affordable price of the device. The 45 cm³ drive volume is enough to perform ordinary tasks in the house and garden. In addition, the 4500 supports the additional installation of a sawing set with a length of up to 50 cm.

This length is more than enough for everyday use. Moreover, installing a long chain will cost more.

The capacity of the fuel tank is more than 0.5 liters, the oil tank is 0.3. Fuel consumption is directly dependent on the conditions of use of the unit, the condition of the fuel pump and the correctness of the carburetor superstructure. With a full tank, the device can work for more than half an hour. During this period, you can cut about 0.5 m³ of firewood into small logs.

Spare parts for Goodluck chainsaw of original quality

If the chainsaw still fails, you can always replace the necessary broken part; for this you will need to identify the faulty part, purchase a new one and replace it. This procedure is simple; at an affordable price you can buy spare parts for a Goodluck chainsaw and make a replacement.

It is worth considering that the replacement parts must be similar and of high quality, so purchase components only from trusted sellers with a good reputation, who have been working on the market for more than one year and value the opinions of their customers.

The chainsaw has a fairly simple operating mechanism; you can replace purchased parts yourself without contacting a service center for help. This is the case if the warranty period has expired and there is no point in buying a new one, it will be cheaper to restore the existing saw and continue cutting wood with the same enthusiasm.

Spare parts for Goodluck chainsaw and quality compliance

Today, the best-selling saw on the Ukrainian market is the Goodluck 4500 brand; accordingly, spare parts for it are also purchased in large quantities, but not always of good quality.

There are a lot of unscrupulous sellers on the markets who sell parts that are not made according to the rules, without proper processing and final hardening, which in the process leads to new breakdowns and financial expenses.

Therefore, you should not take risks and pay twice, but simply buy spare parts for the Goodluck 4500 chainsaw in trusted stores, replace them and continue working.

Practice shows that the greater the demand for products, the more often goods and spare parts for Goodluck chainsaws are counterfeited, so you should be careful when choosing a particular product.

Original spare parts are more expensive than low-quality products, and this is explained by the fact that they are made to all necessary standards from high-quality metal and are subsequently hardened, which will allow the part to work properly longer than expected.

Every owner knows that the cheapest place to buy spare parts for a Goodluck chainsaw is in Kharkov, primarily due to the fact that most stores work directly with manufacturers of original German components, which subsequently allows them to keep the price lower than in other regions of the country.

You can also buy spare parts for the Goodluck 4500 chainsaw, which is the most popular on the Ukrainian market.

The Goodluck Science & Technology Co. company produces several inexpensive and acceptable-quality chainsaws. Their low cost and high performance attract buyers, so we could not leave the Goodluck 5200 and 4500 chainsaws without attention. They will be discussed in this article.

Frequent malfunctions and self-repair of Goodluck chainsaws

Due to the low quality of parts, Goodluck GL 5200 and 4500 chainsaws periodically require repair and adjustment. Spare parts for these saws can be purchased almost anywhere, and knowing how to install them, you can save on visiting a service center. Let's look at common faults and how to diagnose them.

Stopping the supply of lubrication to the chain

Anyone who has bought a Goodluck chainsaw is faced with the problem of oil supply to the chain; it is either completely missing or there is not enough oil for normal operation, which causes increased chain wear.

The reason in 99% of cases is incorrect adjustment of the lubricant pump. It is installed on the side of the drive sprocket; if you turn the chainsaw over, you can see the adjusting screw, with which you can increase or decrease the feed. Adjustment is carried out using a slotted screwdriver. The saw body indicates the direction of rotation of the screw to reduce or increase the feed.

If there is no flow at all, you need to check the setting. If it is normal and the screw is not fully tightened, then continue checking according to the following algorithm:

1. Remove the oil intake and check its flow capacity.
2. Check the oil hose for rupture or blockage.
3. Check the pump drive gear for threads (the gear is plastic, the threads often break off).
4. The above actions did not produce results, then the pump must be changed.

Chain rotation at idle

Another malfunction for which users of Goodluck 5200 and 4500 chainsaws contact the service center is constant rotation of the chain. There are two reasons for the malfunction:

• Incorrect idle speed adjustment; we will tell you how to adjust it below.
• rupture of the clutch spring, as a result of which it is in constant engagement, and accordingly the chain rotates.

To eliminate the malfunction, you need to replace the clutch assembly or install a spring from a donor chainsaw.

Important! The clutch mechanism has a left-hand thread, so it unscrews clockwise. In order to unscrew it, you need to lock the piston through the spark plug hole using a cord with knots tied to it

Malfunctions associated with incorrect carburetor adjustment

The carburetor is responsible for supplying and preparing the air-fuel mixture; if it is not configured correctly, the following malfunctions may occur:

1. No traction or subsidence during operation.
2. No idle speed.
3. Strong smoke when the engine is running.
4. Increased speed.
5. The engine does not develop speed, but the power is felt.
6. The saw stalls when you press the gas.
7. The engine does not start or is difficult to start.

Troubleshooting can be done by adjusting the carburetor screws.

Review from Sergey

City: Barnaul

Intended use: For the garden

I bought myself a Goodluck 4500 over a year ago. Satisfied. I saved a good amount of money compared to buying a household chainsaw from the well-known Shtil brand. After the purchase, I immediately started sawing boards and all sorts of rubbish at the dacha, I didn’t even break it in, I didn’t work every day, but on duty. The saw is powerful and easily copes even with thick boards; I can’t say how it cuts lumps, because I have no experience. I use Oregon two-stroke oil, it’s for the engine, for the chain lubrication system I buy regular Autol at a gas station, although I know it’s not allowed, but it’s cheaper.

I repaired it only once, the saw began to supply lubricant to the chain too quickly, the reason was that the oil pump adjusting screw had become loose due to vibration. I adjusted it and everything was fine. For those who want to save on buying a chainsaw, I recommend the Goodluck 4500.

Grade: ★★★★☆

Review from Anatoly

Tver city

Intended use: For home

I have owned a Goodluck 5200 chainsaw for more than two years. To be honest, I already want to buy something more reliable. There were no serious breakdowns, but I constantly repair small things. I change the shock absorbers, adjust the carburetor, often the saw simply won’t start, but after standing for a while, it starts and works fine. The consumables for it are not expensive, I try to change them in a timely manner. By the way, I want to immediately warn those who are going to buy such a chainsaw that the standard tire is of poor quality and worked for me for less than 2 months. I do not recommend buying a Goodluck 5200 chainsaw, because their quality is questionable and it’s really annoying to constantly repair it.

Grade: ★★★★☆
