8.2. Operating sprayer at high altitude
At high altitude, the standard air/carburetor fuel mixture will be excessively rich. Consequently, the sprayer performance will drop
and the fuel consumption will increase.
Performance at high altitude may be improved through specific adjustments in the carburetor. If the sprayer is always used at alti-
tudes higher than 1.500 m above the sea level, contact you authorized dealer to have these adjustments to the carburetor made.
Even with proper carburetor injection, the engine power will reduce approximately 3.5% for each 300 m of altitude elevation. The
effect of the altitude on the power will be greater if no adjustment is made in the carburetor.
CAUTION!
Operating the sprayer at a lower altitude than the carburetor was designed for may result in poor performance,
overheat and serious damages to the engine caused by an extremely poor mixture or air/fuel.
