9.3 Maintenance of the air 

fi

 lter (Fig. 31-33)

Soiled air 

fi

 lters reduce the engine power by 

supplying too little air to the carburetor. Regular 

checks are therefore essential. The air 

fi

 lter (T) 

should be checked after every 25 hours of use 

and cleaned if necessary. If the air contains a 

lot of dust, the air 

fi

 lter should be checked more 

frequently.

1.  Remove the air 

fi

 lter cover (Fig. 31-32).

2.  Remove the air 

fi

 lter (Fig. 33).

3.  Clean the air 

fi

 lter by tapping it or blowing it 

out.

4.  Assemble in reverse order.

Important:

 Never clean the air 

fi

 lter with petrol or 

in

fl

 ammable solvents.

9.4 Maintenance of the spark plug (Fig. 34)

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 out the spark boot plug (Fig. 13).

2.  Remove the spark plug (Fig. 34) with the sup-

plied multifunction tool (27).

3.  Assemble in reverse order.

9.5 Carburetor settings

Important!

 Settings on the carburetor may only 

be made by authorized customer service person-

nel.

9.6 Setting the idling speed

Important! Set the idling speed when the equip-

ment is warm.

If the engine stalls when the throttle is not pressed 

and you have ruled out all the other possible 

causes listed in section 12 „Troubleshooting“, the 

idling speed must be adjusted. To do this, turn 

the idling speed screw (Fig. 41/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.

9.7 Applying grease to the gear unit

After every 20 hours of use add a little gear gre-

ase (approx. 10 g.) at the lubrication nipple (Fig. 

28/Item 21).

10. Cleaning, storage, transport and 

ordering of spare parts

10.1 Cleaning

• 

Clean the equipment as required with a damp 

cloth and, if necessary, mild washing up 

liquid.

Important!

Always pull out the spark boot plug each time 

before carrying out any cleaning. Never immerse 

the equipment in water or other liquids in order to 

clean it.

Store the equipment in a safe and dry place out of 

the reach of children.

10.2 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.

2.  To remove the fuel from the carburetor, start 

the engine and let it run until it stops.

3.  Leave the engine to cool (approx. 5 minutes).

4.  Remove the spark plug (see section 9.4).

5.  Add one teaspoon of 2-stroke engine oil into 

the combustion chamber. Slowly pull the star-

ter cord several times to apply a layer of oil 

to all internal components. Fit the spark plug 

again.

Note: 

Store the equipment in a dry place and 

far away from possible ignition sources such as 

an oven, a gas-

fi

 red hot water boiler, a gas-

fi

 red 

dryer, etc.
