Adjusting the carburetor NOTE: The grinding parts are equipped with an electronic ignition to limit the speed. At the factory the idling speed has been set to approx. 2500 rpm, but the running-in process of a new engine may require slight readjustment of the idling speed. For correct adjustment of the idling speed the following steps must be carried out: Start the engine and run it until it is warm (about 3 - 5 minutes). Adjust the carburetor with the screwdriver (1, Order No. 944 340 001) included with the Power Cut. It has a lug that helps with adjustment. Readjust the idling speed. If the cut-off disc is still turning when the engine is running, unscrew the adjusting screw of the throttle valve (2) until the cut-off disc is no longer turning. When the engine is left running at idling speed, loosen the screw a little. Switch off the engine 20

Start the engine and run it until it is warm
(about 3 - 5
minutes).
Adjust the carburetor with the screwdriver (
