F) or colder:
A special winter kit, including necessary parts and assembly
instructions, is available for using the machine in cold
temperatures.
345e: Before usage a hole is made in the cylinder cover and
a winter flap is fitted (see illustration below).
346XP, 353: The cylinder cover is designed so it can be
adjusted for running in cold weather.
Twist the winter flap so that preheated air from the cylinder
can pass into the carburetor space preventing icing of the air
filter, etc.
For temperatures below -5°C (23°F) and/or in snow
conditions there is also:
• a special cover (A) for the starter housing
• a winter plug (B) for the air nozzle that is fitted as shown.
These reduce the flow of cooling air and prevent large
amounts of snow from being sucked into the carburetor
space.
For further information see assembly instructions for the
winter kit.
CAUTION! When the winter plug is fitted the winter flap must
be open!
IMPORTANT! If the temperature rises above -5°C (23°F) or
0°C (32°F) respectively the machine MUST be restored to
its normal set-up. Otherwise there is a risk of overheating,
which can cause severe engine damage.
