Other Hints on Starting
If the engine does not start
N
Make sure all settings are correct
(choke shutter, throttle trigger in
starting throttle position, stop switch
to I).
N
Repeat the starting procedure.
If the engine still does not start
N
Remove the spark plug – see
"Spark Plug".
N
Dry the spark plug.
N
Open the throttle wide.
N
Crank the engine several times with
the starter to clear the combustion
chamber.
N
Install the spark plug – see "Spark
Plug".
N
Move the stop switch to I.
N
Set choke lever to
j
– even if the
engine is cold.
N
Now start the engine.
If fuel tank has been run completely dry
and then refueled
N
Press the manual fuel pump
bulb (6) at least five times – even if
the bulb is filled with fuel.
N
Now start the engine.
During break-in period
A factory-new machine should not be
run at high revs (full throttle off load) for
the first three tank fillings. This avoids
unnecessary high loads during the
break-in period. As all moving parts
have to bed in during the break-in
period, the frictional resistances in the
engine are greater during this period.
The engine develops its maximum
power after about 5 to 15 tank fillings.
During Operation
After a long period of full throttle
operation, allow the engine to run for a
short while at idle speed so that engine
heat can be dissipated by the flow of
cooling air. This protects engine-
mounted components (ignition,
carburetor) from thermal overload.
After Finishing Work
Storing for a short period: Wait for the
engine to cool down. Empty the fuel tank
and keep the machine in a dry place,
well away from sources of ignition, until
you need it again. For longer out-of-
service periods – see "Storing the
Machine".
