ENGLISH
• We recommend making carburetor adjustments in a
Authorized Service Center.
• A wrong adjustment can damage the motor and make
the warranty void.
• The motor uses a TORCH L8RTC spark plug with an
electrode gap of 0,025” Replace the spark plug once a
year with a similar one.
• With a totally cold motor, loosen the worn spark plug
turning left with a spark plug wrench and remove it.
• Insert the new spark plug and tighten to the right by
hand. Tighten it half a turn more with the key included.
• Use care not to damage the spark
plug thread. Otherwise the motor will be seriously
damaged.
• Before inspecting, cleaning or servicing the tool, turn off the motor. Wait for all the moving parts to stop. Disconnect
the spark plug cable and separate it from the spark plug. Otherwise, you could be severely injured and the equipment
could get damaged.
Maintenance
Cleaning the air filter
• Remove the air filter cap loosening the cap knob.
• Remove the air filter.
• Depending of the time it has been used you can give a
superficial cleaning to the filter by only tapping it against a
flat surface to remove most of the particles.
• You can also blow the filter with compressed air. Do it
in both sides.
• For a more complete cleaning wash the filter in
lukewarm soapy water. Rinse it and let it dry before
installing it back in the tool.
• Install back the air filter verifying it clicks in place.
• Clean the air filter as frequently as necessary to keep it
always clean. Otherwise the motor performance will
diminish.
General cleaning
Exhaust and muffler cleansing
• The exhaust and muffler can be clogged with carbon
deposits, depending on the type of fuel, the amount of oil
used and / or the conditions the tool is used. If noticing
loss of power you should remove the deposits to restore
performance. Go to a Authorized
Service Center to have this service made.
• The muffler is equipped with an anti-spark screen inside
the muffler. After being used long periods of time the
screen gets dirty and needs to be replaced.
Go to a Authorized Service Center to
have it replaced.
• Check constantly that the muffler has
the fasteners secured and that there is no damage or
corrosion. If finding leaks, stop the tool and immediately
go to a Authorized Service Center to
have it repaired.
