: Unscrew and dry off the spark plug.
: Open the throttle wide.
: Crank the engine several times with
the starter to clear the combustion
chamber.
: Refit the spark plug. Connect the
spark plug boot (press it down
firmly).
: Move the slide control to START.
: Set the choke knob to e –
even if engine is cold.
: Now start the engine.

: After refueling, press the fuel pump
bulb at least five times – even if bulb
is filled with fuel.
: Set choke knob according to engine
temperature.
: Now start the engine.
During break-in period
A factory new machine should not be run
at high revs (full throttle off load) for the
first three tank fillings. This avoids
unnecessary high loads during the
break-in period. As all moving parts
have to bed in during the break-in
period, the frictional resistances in the
engine are greater during this period.
The engine develops its maximum
power after about 5 to 15 tank fillings.
During operation
After a long period of full-throttle
operation, allow engine to run for a while
at idle speed so that the heat in the
engine can be dissipated by flow of
cooling air. This protects engine-
mounted components (ignition,
carburetor) from thermal overload.
After finishing work
Wait for engine to cool down. Drain the
fuel tank. Store the machine in a dry
place. Check tightness of nuts and
screws (not adjusting screws) at regular
intervals and retighten as necessary.
Dirty air filters reduce engine power,
increase fuel consumption and make
starting more difficult.
If there is a noticeable loss of engine
power:
: Set the choke knob to g
: Press in the tab (1) and remove the
filter cover (2).
: Clean away loose dirt from inside
the cover and around the filter (3).
