CAUTION!
Your machine can be equipped with a low
emission carburetor. We recommend that car-
buretor adjustment be done, if necessary,
exclusively by authorized service centers,
which have the appropriate equipment to
ensure optimum performance with lower emis-
sions.
• The correct engine setting at idle speed is 2800
rpm as indicated in the technical specifications
of this manual and should not be modified
unless by an authorized service center
• If the engine does not hold the idle speed, turn
the screw T clockwise to increase the rpm and
counterclockwise reduce the rpm.
CAUTION! ALL THE ABOVE SETTINGS
SHOULD BE MADE WITH THE CUTTING
ATTACHMENTS PROPERLY INSTALLED.
