Drive, pressure test

If it is not possible to adjust the carburetor 
properly, it will be necessary to check the 
sealing of the Drive.

To seal the exhaust side, install sealing plate 

1

 (944.603.180) in the place of the muf

 er 

(rubber coating towards the cylinder). 
To do this it will be necessary to remove the 
muf

 er, see chap. 04.

To seal the intake side, install sealing plate 

2

 

(944.603.200) in the place of the carburetor 
unit. 
To do this it will be necessary to remove the 
carburetor unit, see chap. 07 and 08.
Connect the over/underpressure pump 
to the connection on the sealing plate 

2

  

(944.603.200)

Move the piston to top dead centre.
Pull the pulse line from the cylinder connection 
and seal the connection.
Set up a pressure of max. 0.5 bar.
If the pressure drops within 20 seconds, it can 
have one of these causes:
•• Radial ring leaking
•• Cylinder base gasket leaking
•• Crankcase gasket leaking
•• Crack in crankcase
•• Crack in cylinder
•• Spark plug leaking

NOTE:

 Detergent can be used to localise 

leaks. If there is a leak into the oil tank, it 
will not be possible to fully identify the leak. 
If pressure remains steady in the crankcase 
after shutting off the oil line hole, for example 
with a rubber stopper (see chap. 05), it is 

an indication that there is a defect in the 
crankcase gasket to the oil tank.

Drive, vacuum test

Since the radial gasket ring can also fail 
at negative pressure, a vacuum must be 
established in the crankcase to test the radial 
ring.
Seal off the intake and exhaust sides as 
described above.
Connect the over/underpressure pump to the 
connection on the sealing plate 

2

.

Move the piston to top dead centre.
Pull the pulse line from the cylinder connection 
and seal the connection.
Set up a negative pressure of max. 0.5 bar.
If the pressure does not rise to more than 
0.3 bar within 20 seconds, the radial gasket 
is OK. Otherwise the radial gaskets must be 
replaced.
Remove the 

 ywheel and clutch, see 

IGNITION SYSTEM

 and 

CLUTCH / CLUTCH 

DRUM

.

On the clutch side, pull the circlip from the 
shaft.
Guide the 15 mm radial gasket puller 
(944.500.895) over the shaft and turn it 

 rmly 

into the radial gasket. When the spindle is 
screwed in, it will press against the shaft and 
pull the radial gasket out.

Caution: Under no circumstances hammer 
in the puller.
