smoothly in every position. It

CAUTION! Contact your servicing dealer, if the idle speed
setting cannot be adjusted so that the cutting attachment
stops. Do not use the machine until it has been properly
adjusted or repaired.
High speed needle H
The high speed needle H
influences the power, speed,
temperature and fuel
consumption of the machine.
A too lean adjusted high
speed needle H (high speed
needle H closed too much)
gives overrevs and damages
the engine. Do not let the
machine run at full speed for
more than 10 seconds.
Turn the high speed needle
very slowly clockwise until
engine speed is reduced.
Thereafter turn the high speed
needle very slowly counter-
clockwise and stop when the
engine begins to run roughly.
Then turn the high speed
needle slowly the minimum
amount clockwise until the
engine runs smoothly.
The high speed needle H is
correctly set when the
machine �4-cycles� a little. If

setting is too lean. If there isH
too much smoky exhaust gas
at the same time as the
machine �4-cycles� much, the
setting is too rich.
NOTE! For optimum setting of the carburettor, contact a
qualified servicing dealer who has a revolution counter at
his disposal.
