To adjust the idle speed
Note:
Adjust the idle speed with the idle adjustment
screw. The idle adjustment screw is identified with a "T"
mark.
1. Make sure that the air filter is clean and that the air
filter cover is installed.
2. Start the product and let the engine become warm.
3. Do 1 of the steps that follow.
a) If the engine stops frequently at idle speed, turn
the idle adjustment screw clockwise.
b) If the cutting equipment rotates at idle speed,
turn the idle adjustment screw counterclockwise.
Note:
for the
position of the idle adjustment screw.
The idle speed is correct when the engine operates
smoothly in all positions. The idle speed must be below
the speed when the cutting equipment starts to rotate.
WARNING:
If the cutting equipment
does not stop when you adjust the idle
speed, speak to your nearest servicing
dealer. Do not use the product until it is
correctly adjusted or repaired.
Note:
Technical data on page 17
for the
recommended idle speed.
To examine and adjust the throttle
cable
1. Examine the play of the throttle cable. The play must
be 3-4 mm/0.12 in. on the carburetor side.
2. If the play is incorrect, adjust the throttle cable with
the cable adjuster.
To do maintenance on the muffler
The muffler decreases the noise level and points the
exhaust gases away from the operator.
WARNING:
Mufflers that have catalytic
converters get very hot during operation and
will stay hot for some time after you stop the
product. This also applies at idle speed. If
you touch the product it can result in burns
to the skin. Think about of the risk of fire.
1. Stop the product and let it cool down.
2. Make sure that the muffler is correctly attached and
that it is not damaged.
