blowing it.
4. Assemble in reverse order.
Important: Never clean the air fi lter with petrol or
infl ammable solvents.
9.4 Maintenance of the spark plug
(Fig. 11a-11b)
Spark plug sparking gap = 0.6mm. Tighten the
spark plug with a torque of 12 to 15 Nm. Check
the spark plug for dirt and grime after 10 hours of
operation and if necessary clean it with a copper
wire brush. Thereafter service the spark plug after
every 50 hours of operation.
1. Pull out the spark plug connector (16) (Fig.
11a).
2. Remove the spark plug (Abb. 11b) with the
supplied spark plug wrench (27).
3. Assemble in reverse order.
9.5 Carburetor settings
Important. Settings on the carburetor may only be
made by authorized customer service personnel.
The air fi lter cover must be removed before any
work on the carburetor, as shown in Figures
10a-10c.
Setting the throttle cable:
If the maximum speed of the equipment drops
over time and you have ruled out all the other
possible causes listed in section 12 „Troubleshoo-
ting“, it may be necessary to adjust the throttle
cable. First of all check whether the carburetor
opens fully when the throttle handle is pressed
right through. This is the case if the carburetor
slide (Fig. 13a) is completely opened when the
throttle is fully activated. Figure 13a shows the
correct setting. If the carburetor slide is not com-
pletely open, it must be adjusted.
The following steps are required to adjust the
throttle cable:
•
Undo the adjusting screw (Fig. 13b/Item D)
until the carburetor slide is completely open
when the throttle is fully activated, as shown
in Figure 13a.
9.6 Setting the idling speed
Important! Set the idling speed when the equip-
ment is warm.
Only an authorized service center is allowed to
set the idling speed. The start-up speed of the
cutting tool must be at least 1.25 times the idling
speed.
9.7 Applying grease to the gear unit
After every 20 hours of use add a little gear grea-
se (approx. 10 g) at the lubrication point (C) (Fig.
7c).
10. Cleaning, storage, transport and
ordering of spare parts
10.1 Cleaning
•
Keep the handles free of oil so that you can
maintain a firm grip.
•
Clean the equipment as required with a damp
cloth and, if necessary, mild washing up
liquid.
Important!
Always pull out the spark boot plug each time
before carrying out any cleaning. Never immerse
the equipment in water or other liquids in order to
clean it.
Store the equipment in a safe and dry place out of
the reach of children.
10.2 Storage
Important: Never put the equipment into storage
for longer than 30 days without carrying out the
following steps.
Storing the equipment
If you intend to store the equipment for longer
than 30 days, the equipment must be prepared
accordingly. Otherwise the fuel still remaining in
the carburetor will evaporate and leave a rubbery
sediment. This can cause problems when starting
up the equipment and may require expensive
repairs.
1. Slowly remove the fuel tank cap to release
any pressure that may have formed in the
tank. Carefully empty the tank.
2. To remove the fuel from the carburetor, start
the engine and let it run until it stops.
3. Leave the engine to cool (approx. 5 minutes).
Note: Store the equipment in a dry place and
