Cutting attachment rotates when engine
is idling
N Turn the idle speed screw (LA)
counterclockwise until the cutting
attachment stops moiving and then
turn the screw another 1/2 to 1 full
turn in the same direction.
WARNING
If the cutting attachment continues to
rotate when the engine is idling, have
your machine checked and repaired by
your servicing dealer.
Erratic idling behavior, poor acceleration
(despite correction to setting of LA
screw).
Idle setting is too lean
N Turn the low speed screw (L)
counterclockwise, no further than
stop, until the engine runs and
accelerates smoothly.
Erratic idling behavior
Idle setting is too rich
N Turn the low speed screw (L) slowly
clockwise, no further than stop, until
the engine runs and accelerates
smoothly.
It is usually necessary to change the
setting of the idle speed screw (LA) after
every correction to the low speed
screw (L).
Fine Tuning for Operation at High
Altitude
A slight correction of the setting may be
necessary if engine does not run
satisfactorily:
N Carry out the standard setting.
N Warm up the engine.
N Turn high speed screw (H) slightly
clockwise (leaner) – no further than
stop.
NOTICE
After returning from high altitude, reset
the carburetor to the standard setting.
If the setting is too lean there is a risk of
engine damage due to insufficient
lubrication and overheating.
If engine is down on power, difficult to
start or runs poorly at idling speed, first
check the spark plug.
Fit a new spark plug after approx. 100
operating hours or earlier if the
electrodes are badly eroded.
Wrong fuel mix (too much engine oil in
the gasoline), a dirty air filter and
unfavorable running conditions (mostly
at part throttle etc.) affect the condition
of the spark plug. These factors cause
deposits to form on the insulator nose
which may result in trouble in operation.
Removing the Spark Plug
N Move the stop switch to 0.
N Pull off the spark plug boot (1).
N Unscrew the spark plug.
