ADJUSTMENT
Level 2.
Tools required:
Screwdriver, tachometer (Echo P/N 99051130017)
Parts required:

NOTE
Every unit is run at the factory and the carburetor is set in
compliance with emission regulations. Carburetor adjustments,
other than idle speed, must be performed by an authorized
ECHO dealer.
Before Adjustment
Check that:
• Air filter is clean and properly installed.
• Spark arrestor screen is free of carbon.
• Blower pipes are installed.
1. Start engine, run at idle for one minute.
2. Complete warm up by running at full throttle for 5 minutes,
operating choke twice to clear air from carburetor chambers.
3. Check idle speed and reset if necessary. If a tachometer is
available, idle speed screw (A) should be set to the specifications
