It is advisable to fit the optional cover
plate (1128 080 7500) on the fan
housing in extremely cold conditions
(temperatures below -10 °C, in powder
or drifting snow).
The cover plate blanks off the lower slots
in the fan housing to help prevent snow
being sucked into the machine.
When the cover plate is fitted, the
shutter in the carburetor box cover must
be in the winter position.
