MAINTENANCE
Adjust i ng the start thr ot t l e speed
The correct start throttle speed is set by
means of an adjuster on the rear of the
handle next to the cable. Use this screw (4
mm Allen screw) to increase or decrease
the start throttle speed.
Proceed as follows:
1. Run the machine at idle.
2. Press the start throttle lock as described
under the heading Starting and stopping.
3. If the start throttle speed is too low (below
4000 rpm), turn adjuster screw (A) clock-
wise until the cutting attachment starts to
rotate. Then turn adjuster screw (A)
clockwise an additional 1/2 turn.
4. If the start throttle speed is too high, turn
adjuster screw (A) counterclockwise
until the cutting attachment stops. Then
turn adjuster screw (A) clockwise an
additional 1/2 turn.

at peak performance and to minimize harm-
ful exhaust emissions after the run--in peri-
od, ask your servicing dealer to adjust your
carburetor .

Function
S The carburetor governs the engine’s
speed via the throttle control. Air and fuel
are mixed in the carburetor.
S The T--screw regulates the throttle setting
at idle speed. If the T--screw is turned
clockwise this gives a higher idle speed;
turning it counterclockwise gives a lower
idle speed.
Basic setting
S The basic carburetor settings are ad-
justed during testing at the factory. Fine
adjustment should be carried out by a
skilled technician.
Rec. idle speed:
See “Technical data” section.
Recommended max. speed:
See “Technical data” section.
CAUTION! If the cutting attachment rotates
when the engine is idling the idle adjustment
screw T should be turned counterclockwise
until the cutting attachment stops.

W ARNING: If the idle speed can-
not be adjusted so that the cutting
attachment stops, contact your
servicing dealer. Do not use the
