At temperatures between +10°C and +20°C
The machine can normally be operated in this temperature range with the shutter (Pos. 2) in
the summer position. Change the position of the shutter if necessary.
At temperatuers above +20°C
Always return the shutter (Pos.2) to the summer position.
At temperatures below -10°C

Remove the parts of the cover plate kit and refit the standard parts for summer operation. Depending on the
ambient temperature set the shutter (Pos. 2) to the summer or winter position.
4.2.5 Spark plug
If the engine is down on power, difficult to start or runs poorly at idle speed, first check the spark plug. Fit a new
spark plug after about 100 operating hours or sooner if the electrodes are badly eroded. Install only suppressed
spark plugs of the type approved “specifications”.
4.2.6 Adjusting the throttle cable
Correct adjustment of the throttle cable is a precondition for correct operation of the machine in all modes, from
starting to full throttle. It may be necessary to readjust the throttle cable after assembling the machine or after a
prolonged period of operation.
