effective exhaust extraction system.

Idle speed
1,400… 1,500 rpm
–
Turn idle air adjusting screw
slowly in a clockwise direction until the idle speed
begins to fall.
–
Note the position and turn the idle air adjusting screw slowly counterclockwise until
the idle speed falls again.
–
Adjust to the point between these two positions with the highest idle speed.
Info
If there is a large engine speed rise, reduce the idle speed to a normal level
and repeat the above steps.
If the procedure described here does not lead to satisfactory results, the
cause may be a wrongly dimensioned idling jet.
If you can turn the idle air adjusting screw to the end without any change of
engine speed, you need to install a smaller idling jet.
After changing the idling jet, repeat the adjusting steps from the beginning.
Following extreme air temperature or altitude changes, adjust the idle speed
again.
