Warm up the engine.
Fit a new spark plug after approx. 100
operating hours or earlier if the
electrodes are badly eroded.
Turn the low speed screw (L) 1/8 of
a turn (45°) counterclockwise.

It is usually necessary to change the
setting of the idle speed screw (LA) after
every correction to the low speed
screw (L).
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.
