Note: Do not connect the tachometer directly to the

ignition system. The tachometer senses the magnetic

field from the ignition system.

Note: Do not remove the air filter cover.

WARNING: Adjust the idle speed outdoors. The

exhaust fumes are poisonous.

1. Operate the product for approximately 5 minutes

until it is warm.

2. Keep the instrument with the arrow down to the

position of the spark plug.

3. Adjust the idle screw to an idle speed of

approximately 2700 rpm.

If the cutting blade rotates at this speed, do a check of

the clutch.

6.7 Decompression valve

6.7.1 Decompression valve function

The decompression valve decreases the compression in

the cylinder when the engine starts. A small quantity of a

mixture of fuel and air goes through the decompression

valve (A). The valve closes because of the combustion

pressure when the engine fires (B).

A

B

6.7.2 To remove the decompression valve

•

Remove the decompression valve with a long socket

or the combination wrench.

6.7.3 To examine the decompression valve

1. Make sure that the decompression valve moves.

2. Clean the decompression valve.
3. Apply leakage spray or soap water on the

decompression valve before installation.

4. Install the decompression valve, refer to 

To install

the decompression valve on page 42.
