Carburetor

Adjustment of the idle speed

Before any adjustments are made, make sure that the air
filter is clean and the air filter cover is fitted. Make sure the
start throttle position is disengaged.
Adjust the idle speed with the idle adjustment screw T, if
adjustment is necessary. First turn the idle adjustment
screw T clockwise until the blades start to move. Then
turn the idle adjustment screw T anticlockwise until the
blades stop. The idle speed is correctly adjusted when the
engine runs smoothly in every position. There should also
be a clear margin to the speed at which the blades start
to move.
Rec. idle speed: See the Technical data section.
WARNING! If the idle speed cannot be
!
adjusted so that the cutting attachment
stops, contact your dealer/service
workshop. Do not use the machine until
it has been correctly adjusted or
repaired.
Muffler
CAUTION! Some mufflers are fitted with a catalytic
converter. See chapter on Technical data to see whether
your machine is fitted with a catalytic converter.
The muffler is designed to reduce the noise level and to
direct the exhaust gases away from the operator. The
exhaust gases are hot and can contain sparks, which may
cause fire if directed against dry and combustible
material.

MAINTENANCE

Some mufflers are equipped with a special spark arrestor
screen. If your machine has this type of muffler, you
should clean the screen at least once a week. This is best
done with a wire brush.
On mufflers without a catalytic converter the screen
should be cleaned weekly, or replaced if necessary. On
mufflers fitted with a catalytic converter the screen should
be checked, and if necessary cleaned, monthly. If the
screen is damaged it should be replaced. If the mesh
is frequently blocked, this can be a sign that the
carburettor is incorrectly adjusted or that too much oil has
been mixed with the petrol.
On mufflers fitted with a catalytic converter, the mesh
must be checked, and if necessary cleaned, monthly. If
the mesh is damaged it must be replaced. If the screen
is frequently blocked, this can be a sign that the
performance of the catalytic converter is impaired.
Contact your dealer to inspect the muffler. A blocked
screen will cause the machine to overheat and result in
damage to the cylinder and piston.
CAUTION! Never use a machine with a defective muffler.
!

Cooling system

To keep the working temperature as low as possible the
machine is equipped with a cooling system.
The cooling system consists of:
1 Cooling fins on the cylinder.
2 Cylinder cover (directs cold air over the cylinder).
WARNING! Mufflers fitted with catalytic converters get very hot during use and
remain so for some time after stopping.
This also applies at idle speed. Contact
can result in burns to the skin.
Remember the risk of fire!
