Checking the Spark Plug
Cutting tool rotates when engine is
idling
If engine is down on power, difficult to
start or runs poorly at idling speed, first
check the spark plug.
:
Turn idle speed screw (LA) slowly
counterclockwise until the tool stops
rotating and then turn the screw
about another 1/2 to /4 turn in the
same direction.
:
Remove spark plug as described
in chapter "Starting / Stopping the
Engine".

:
:
Clean dirty spark plug.
Check the electrode gap (A) and
readjust if necessary – see
"Specifications".
Erratic idling behavior, engine stops
even though setting of LA screw is
correct, poor acceleration
:
Use only resistor type spark plugs
of the approved range.
Idle setting too lean:
:
Turn low speed screw (L)
counterclockwise (no further than
stop) until the engine runs and
accelerates smoothly.
Rectify problems which have caused
fouling of spark plug:
:
:
:
Too much oil in fuel mix.
Dirty air filter.
Unfavorable running conditions,
e.g. operating at part load.
Erratic idling behavior
Idle setting too rich:
:
Wrong fuel mix (too much engine oil in
the gasoline), a dirty air filter and
Fit a new spark plug after approx.
100 operating hours
or earlier if the electrodes are badly
eroded.
Turn low speed screw (L) clockwise
(no further than stop) until the
engine runs and accelerates
smoothly.
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.
