Exhaust emissions are controlled by the
design of the fundamental engine
parameters and components (e.g.
carburation, ignition, timing and valve or
port timing) without the addition of any
major hardware.
The carburetor comes from the factory
with a standard setting.
This setting provides an optimum fuel-air
mixture under most operating
conditions.
With this carburetor it is only possible to
adjust the engine idle speed within fine
limits.!
Standard Setting
:
Shut off the engine.
:
Mount FS cutting tool, Power Tool
Attachment or CombiTool.
:
Check the air filter and replace if
necessary.
:

adjust if necessary – see "Adjusting
the Throttle Cable".
:
Turn high speed screw
(H)
counterclockwise
(max.

as
far as stop.
:

down onto its seat. Then
open it
one
turn counterclockwise.
:

(LA)
so that the cutting tool
does not rotate.
Fine Tuning

may be necessary
if engine power is not satisfactory when
operating at high altitude or at sea level
