0000 850 1300 on to the nipple.
: Push the ring (1) to the right and
pump air into the carburetor until
the pressure gauge (2) indicates
a pressure of about 0.8 bar
(80 kPa).
If this pressure remains constant,
the carburetor is airtight. However, if
it drops, there are three possible
causes:
1. The inlet needle is not sealing
(foreign matter in valve seat,
sealing cone of inlet needle
is damaged or inlet control lever
is sticking). Remove to clean,

gasket damaged, replaced
if necessary, b 14.4.3
– After completing the test, push
the ring (1) to the left to vent the

: Take out the screws (arrows).
– Remove the end cover (1).
If the gasket and diaphragm are
stuck to the carburetor, remove
them very carefully.
: Carefully separate the metering
diaphragm (1) and gasket (2).
The diaphragm material is
subjected to continuous alternating
stresses and eventually shows
signs of fatigue, i.e. the diaphragm
distorts and swells and has to be
replaced.
– Check the metering diaphragm
for signs of damage and wear.
Install a new gasket.
