MAINTENANCE
Checking and adjustment of the throttle wire
Check that the engine responds to the throttle control and that the correct engine speed is achieved at full throttle.
If in doubt, contact the service workshop.
If adjustment is necessary, adjust the lower wire as follows:
1. Release the clamping screw that secures the wire casing and set the throttle control to full throttle.
2.Check that the throttle wire is attached to the correct hole in the lower lever, see diagram.
3.Pull the throttle wire casing to the far left and tighten the clamping screw.
Checking and adjusting the choke wire
If the engine is producing black smoke or is difficult to start then the choke wire (upper wire) may be incorrectly adjusted.
If in doubt contact your service workshop.
If it is necessary to adjust the choke, proceed as follows:
1. Release the clamping screw that secures the wire casing and set the choke control to maximum choke.
2. Check that the throttle wire is attached to the upper lever, see diagram.
3.Pull the choke wire casing to the far right and tighten the clamping screw.
Replacing the fuel filter
Replace the pipe fitted fuel filter every 100 running hours (once per season) or more frequently if it is clogged.
Replace the filter as follows:
1.Fold open the engine cover.
2.Move the hose clips away from the filter. Use a pair of flat pliers.
3.Pull off the filter from the hose ends.
4.Press in the new filter on the hose ends. If necessary soap solution can be applied on the filter ends to simplify fitting.
5.Push the hose clips back on the filter.
