11 OPERATION
11.1 Operation instructions
I M P O R T A N T
The first 10 hours of operation the machine shall not be operated but
only at medium engine speed.
Do not operate the engine at max. speed
right from the start, as the engine itself as well as the gearing components
need a running-in time. The engine itself reaches its max. capacity after the
first 10 hours of operation. Non-compliance with this instruction reduces your
engine lifespan substantially. To reduce the max. possible engine speed, turn
the adjustment knob
(H-5) , so that the throttle lever (H-4) cannot be pushed
entirely in.
11.1.1 Refueling
The machine is run by a gasoline-oil mixture. You need for the 2-Stroke
engine a fuel mixture of 40:1.
Ensure yourself that no particles get into the fuel tank when refueling. Use a
filter.
ZIPPER MASCHINEN strongly recommends the usage of HQ premixed fuels especially
recommended for 2-stroke motors. Many of them keep their consistency even after
long periods of storage.
If you prefer to mix your own fuel please use HQ Synthetic Oil for 2-stroke engines.
Synthetic oil reduces accumulation of soot on the spark plug, cylinder, engine cock
and exhaust pipe. This increases the degree of lubrication and prolongs the engines
lifespan.
I M P O R T A N T
Shake fuel tank prior to every usage! During storage oil descents slowly
in the fuel tank. If you start the engine under this condition, it has barely
any lubrication which would lead to severe engine damage.
11.1.2 Cold Starting
 Put the choker into position as shown in (Fig. C) .
 Put the switch (H-3) into position START .
 Operate the fuel pump (I-9) 3-5 times (Fig. K).
 Press the security lever (H-1) with the heel of your hand.
 Operate the throttle lever (H-4) .
 Push the locking lever (H-2) in order to block the throttle lever.
 Now grasp the starter handle (I-4) and pull it out briskly! Repeat if necessary.
 After the engine has started, release the locking lever (H-2) .
 Let the engine run in idle speed for 2-3 Minutes!
 Put the choker into position as shown in (Fig. D) .
