to be drawn in from around the cylinder
and mixed with cold air – this helps
prevent carburetor icing.
An arrow (1) on the shroud indicates the
setting of the shutter (2) for summer or
winter operation. Meaning of symbols:
– "Sun" = summer operation
– "Snowflake" = winter operation
N Remove the screw (3) from the
shutter.
N Pull the shutter (2) out of the
shroud.
N Rotate the shutter (2) from the
summer position to the winter
position and refit it.
N Secure the shutter in position with
the screw (3).

necessary.

summer position.
