Adjusting the start throttle speed
The correct start throttle speed is set by means of an
adjuster on the rear of the handle next to the cable. Use
this screw (4 mm Allen screw) to increase or decrease the
start throttle speed.
Proceed as follows:
1
Run the machine at idle.
2
Press the start throttle lock as described under the
heading Starting and stopping.
3
If the start throttle speed is too low (below 4000 rpm),
turn the adjuster screw A clockwise until the cutting
attachment starts to rotate. Then turn A clockwise a
further 1/2 turn.
4
If the start throttle speed is too high, turn the adjuster
screw A anticlockwise until the cutting attachment
stops. Then turn adjuster screw A clockwise a further
1/2 turn.
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.
Some mufflers are equipped with a special spark arrestor
mesh. If your machine has this type of muffler, you should
clean the mesh at least once a week. This is best done
with a wire brush. On mufflers without a catalytic
converter the mesh should be cleaned weekly, or
replaced if necessary. On mufflers fitted with a catalytic
converter the mesh should be checked, and if necessary
cleaned, monthly.
If the mesh is damaged it should be
replaced.
If the mesh 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 mesh will cause the machine to overheat and
result in damage to the cylinder and piston.
CAUTION!
Never use a machine with a defective muffler.
!
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.

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!
