Standard Setting
N Turn high speed screw (H)
counterclockwise as far as stop (no
more than 3/4 turn).
N Turn the low speed screw (L)
carefully clockwise as far as stop,
then turn it back 3/4 turn.
Adjusting Idle Speed
N Carry out the standard setting.
N Start and warm up the engine.
Engine stops while idling
N Turn the idle speed screw (LA)
clockwise until the engine runs
smoothly.
Erratic idling behavior, engine stops
even though setting of LA screw has
been corrected, poor acceleration
Idle setting is too lean
N Turn the low speed screw (L)
carefully counterclockwise, no
further than stop, until the engine
runs and accelerates smoothly.
Erratic idling behavior, engine speed
drops when swinging the machine
Idle setting is too rich
N Turn the low speed screw (L)
clockwise until the engine runs and
accelerates smoothly.
It is usually necessary to change the
setting of the idle speed screw (LA) after
every correction to the low speed
screw (L).
Fine tuning for operation at high altitude
A slight correction of the setting may be
necessary if engine does not run
satisfactorily:
N Carry out the standard setting.
N Warm up the engine.
N Turn high speed screw (H) slightly
clockwise (leaner) – no further than
stop.
NOTICE
After returning from high altitude, reset
the carburetor to the standard setting.
If the setting is too lean there is a risk of
engine damage due to insufficient
lubrication and overheating.
If the engine is down on power, difficult
to start or runs poorly at idling speed,
first check the spark plug.
Install a new spark plug after approx.
100 operating hours or earlier if the
electrodes are badly eroded/corroded.
The wrong fuel mix (too much engine oil
in the gasoline), a dirty air filter and
unfavorable running conditions (mostly
at part throttle etc.) affect the condition
of the spark plug. These factors cause
deposits to form on the insulator nose
which may degrade performance.
Removing the Spark Plug
N Pull off the spark plug boot (1).
N Unscrew the spark plug.
