8.2 Servicing the air filter
Soiled air filters reduce the engine output by supply
too little air to the carburetor. Regular checks are
therefore essential. The air filter should be checked
after every 25 hours of use and cleaned if necessary.
If the air contains a lot of dust, the air filter should be
checked more frequently.
1. Remove the air filter cover (Fig. 10a).
2. Remove the filter element (Fig. 10b/10c).
3. Clean the filter element by tapping it or blowing it.
4. Assemble in reverse order.
Important: Never clean the air filter with petrol or
inflammable solvents.
8.3 Maintenance of the spark plug
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 off the spark plug boot by twisting.
2. Remove the spark plug (Abb. 11b) with the
supplied spark plug wrench (27).
3. Assemble in reverse order.
8.4 Sharpening the protective hood blade
The protective hood blade may become blunt over
time. If the blade appears to have lost its sharp edge,
unfasten the screw retaining the blade to the
protective hood. Clamp the blade in a bench vise.
Sharpen the blade with a flat file, taking care to
preserve the cutting edge angle. File the blade only in
one direction.
8.5 Carburetor settings
Important. Settings on the carburetor may only be
made by authorized customer service personnel.
The air filter cover must be removed before any work
on the carburetor, as shown in Figures 10a and 10b.
Setting the throttle cable:
If the maximum speed of the machine falls over time
and you have ruled out all the other causes listed in
section 11 Troubleshooting, it may be necessary to
adjust the throttle cable.
First of all check whether the carburetor opens fully
when the throttle handle is pressed fully. This is the
case if the carburetor slide F rests against the stop
(Fig. 13a) when the throttle is fully open. Figure 13a
shows the correct setting. If the carburetor slide does
not touch the stop, it must be adjusted.
The following steps are required to adjust the
n
throttle cable:
Undo the lock nut (Fig. 13b/Item C) a few turns.
n
Undo the adjusting screw (Fig. 13b/Item D) until
n
the carburetor slide F rests against the stop when
the throttle is fully open, as shown in Fig 13.
Retighten the lock nut.
n
Setting the idling speed
Important. Set the idling speed when the equipment
is warm.
If the engine stalls when the throttle is not pressed
and you have ruled out all the other causes listed in
section 11 Troubleshooting, the idling speed must be
adjusted. To do this turn the idling speed screw (Fig.
13b/Item E) clockwise until the equipment runs
smoothly at idling speed. If the idling speed is so fast
that the cutting tool turns as well, it has to be reduced
by turning the idling speed screw for as long as is
required for the cutting tool to stop turning as well.
8.6 Environmental protection
Dispose of soiled maintenance material and
operating materials at the appropriate collection point.
Recycle packaging material, metal and plastics.
8.7 Ordering replacement parts
Please provide the following information on all orders
for spare parts:
Model/type of the equipment
n
Article number of the equipment
n

9. Storage and transport

9.1 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.
