The fuel-free air and fuel-air mixture follow separate paths. Each has its own throttle shutter. The throttle
shutter (2) of the fuel-free air path is actuated via a throttle rod (3) from the throttle shutter (1) of the fuel-air
mixture path. The oblong hole (5) in the actuating lever (4) ensures that the throttle shutter (2) in the fuel-free
air path opens later.
