Using a 1.5mm allen driver, loosen the venturi body guide screw (82-1-7) so the venturi body can be removed. Using your fingers on the handle on the side of the venturi body (or the needle valve for the FA-40), remove the venturi body from the carburetor body. Use the 1.5mm driver to push the small venturi insert (82-1-9) and remove it. Keep it in a safe place in the event you wish to reinstall it.

Slide the venturi body back into the carburetor body using the marks you made to line it up so the venturi body guide can be reinstalled into the venturi body. Use care not to strip the threads. Do not overtighten. Starting the Engine Please refer to the Break-in and Starting Instructions on page 4 and 5 of the “Small-Medium Single Cylinder 4-Stroke Engine Instructions (SAIMAN1).
