– Open the high speed screw H (1)
one and one half turns.

one full turn.
: Position new limiter cap (1) for 
the high speed screw (H) so that 
it is in line with the rich stop 
(arrow).
: Push home limiter cap as far as 
stop against the carburetor body.
Always install a new limiter cap. 
Limiter caps that have been 
removed once may be damaged 
and must not be re-used.

Correct operation of the carburetor 
is only possible if atmospheric 
pressure and internal fuel tank 
pressure are equal at all times. This 
is ensured by the tank vent.
If problems occur on the carburetor 
or the fuel supply system, also 
check and clean the tank vent.
Check function by performing 
pressure and vacuum tests on the 
tank via the fuel hose.
– Remove the carburetor box cover 
– b 11.1.
: Take the tank vent valve (1) out of 
the retainer (3) and pull off the 
hose (2).
: Connect vacuum pump 
0000 850 3501 (1) to tank vent 
(2) with hose.
– Use vacuum pump to subject 
vent valve to vacuum.
Equalization of pressure in the fuel 
tank takes place via the tank vent 
valve. There must be no build-up of 
vacuum during the test. In the event 
of a malfunction, wash the vent 
valve and hose in STIHL cleaner 
and blow clear with compressed air. 
Replace components if necessary.
Reassemble in the reverse 
sequence.
Make sure the hoses are not kinked.
