Connecting the Drive Tubes
: Remove the cap from the front end
of the drive shaft and keep it in a
safe place.
: Place the machine on the ground so
that it rests in the engine support.
: Inspect the ends of drive tubes for
dirt and clean if necessary.
: Push the front end of the drive tube
as far as stop onto the drive tube at
the engine end.
: Rotate the front of the drive tube
until until the open side of the hook
points vertically downward – use
the 36 mm open-end wrench to hold
the hook steady for the following
operations.
: Screw the nut onto the thread and
tighten it down firmly with the 47 mm
open-end wrench.
The open side of the hook must now
point vertically downward. If not,
repeat the steps described above.
: Check swivel range of hook – see

Operating Instructions

During break-in period
A factory new machine should not be run
at high revs (full throttle off load) for the
first three tank fillings. This avoids
unnecessary high loads during the
break-in period. As all moving parts
have to bed in during the break-in
period, the frictional resistances in the
engine are greater during this period.
The engine develops its maximum
power after about 5 to 15 tank fillings.
During operation
After a long period of full-throttle
operation, allow engine to run for a while
at idle speed so that the heat in the
engine can be dissipated by flow of
cooling air. This protects engine-
mounted components (ignition,
carburetor) from thermal overload.
After finishing work
Wait for engine to cool down. Drain the
fuel tank. Store the machine in a dry
place. Check tightness of nuts and
screws (not adjusting screws) at regular
intervals and retighten as necessary.
