MAINTENANCE
Winter use
CAUTION! When the winter plug is fitted the winter flap
must be open!
Running problems can occur when using the machine in
the cold and snowy conditions caused by:
IMPORTANT! If the temperature rises above -5°C or
0°C respectively the machine MUST be restored to its
normal set-up. Otherwise there is a risk of overheating,
which can cause severe engine damage.
•
•
Too low engine temperature.
Icing of the air filter and carburettor.
Special measures are therefore often required:
•
Partly mask the air inlet on the starter to increase the
working temperature of the engine.
•
Preheat the intake air to the carburettor by using the
heat from the cylinder.
Temperature 0°C or colder:
A special winter kit, including necessary parts and
assembly instructions, is available for using the machine
in cold temperatures.
Before usage a hole is made in the cylinder cover and a
winter flap is fitted (see illustration below).Twist the winter
flap so that preheated air from the cylinder can pass into
the carburettor space preventing icing of the air filter, etc.
For temperatures below -5°C and/or in snow conditions
there is also:
•
•
a special cover (A) for the starter housing
a winter plug (B) for the air nozzle that is fitted as
shown.
These reduce the flow of cooling air and prevent large
amounts of snow from being sucked into the carburettor
space.
For further information see assembly instructions for the
winter kit.
