Spark Arresting Screen* in
Muffler
Checking the Spark Plug
Adjusting Idle Speed
It is usually necessary to change the
setting of the idle speed screw (LA)
after every correction to the low speed
screw (L).
:
Warm up the engine for about 5
minutes.
Engine stops while idling
:
Turn idle speed screw (LA) slowly
clockwise until the engine runs
smoothly – cutting blade must not
rotate.
Cutting blade rotates when engine is
idling
:
Turn idle speed screw (LA) slowly
counterclockwise until cutting blade
stops rotating and then turn the
screw about another 1/2 to 1 turn in
the same direction.
If the engine is low on power, check the
spark arresting screen in the muffler.
Wrong fuel mix (too much engine oil in
the gasoline), a dirty air filter and
unfavorable running conditions (mostly
at part throttle etc.) affect the condition of
the spark plug. These factors cause
deposits to form on the insulator nose
which may result in trouble in operation.

:
Lift spark arresting screen and pull it
out sideways.
Erratic idling behavior
Clean spark arresting screen if
necessary.
:
Turn low speed screw (L) clockwise
(about 1/4 turn) until the engine runs
and accelerates smoothly.
If screen is damaged or coked up, fit
a new one.
Refit the spark arresting screen.
