KM 85, KM 85 R
Tensioning the Rewind Spring
: Make a loop in the unwound
starter rope and use it to turn
the rope rotor six full revolutions
counterclockwise. Hold the rotor
steady – straighten the twisted rope
– release the rotor
let go of rope slowly so that it winds
onto the rotor.
: Check spring tension:
The starter grip must be firmly
seated in the rope guide bushing.
If the grip droops to one side: Add
one more turn on rope rotor to
increase spring tension.
When the starter rope is fully
extended it must be possible to
rotate the rotor another half turn. If
this is not the case, the spring is
overtensioned and could break.
Take one turn of rope off the rotor.
: Go to "Fitting the Starter Cover".
Fitting the Starter Cover
: Push the upper mounting boss (2)
under the shroud (4) –
line up the tank (3)and push the
lower part of cover onto the tank.
: Insert and tighten down the housing
screws (1).
For periods of about 3 months or longer:
: Drain and clean the fuel tank in a
well ventilated area.
: Dispose fuel properly in accordance
with local environmental
requirements.
: Run the engine until the carburetor
is dry – this helps prevent the
carburetor diaphragms sticking
together.
: Thoroughly clean the machine - pay
special attention to the cylinder fins
and the air filter.
: Remove the tool – clean and inspect
it.
: Store the machine in a dry, high or
locked location out of the reach
of children and other unauthorized
persons.
