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. 2600 rpm, but the running-in process of a new engine may require slight readjustment of the idling speed. Adjustments to the adjusting screws (L) and (H) may only be made by an authorised MAKITA service center. SERVICE 7 For correct adjustment of the idling speed the following steps must be carried out: T Start the engine and run it until it is warm (about 3 - 5 minutes). L Adjust the carburetor with the screwdriver (7, Order No. 944 340 001) included with the Power Cut. It has a lug that helps with adjustment. Readjust the idling speed. If the cutoff disc turns when the engine is idling, turn the throttle stop screw (T) counter-clockwise in small increments until the disc no longer turns. If the engine suddenly stops in idle, turn the screw back slightly clockwise. Switch off the engine. MAINTENANCE CAUTION: Before doing any work on the Power Cut turn off the engine, remove the cutting disc, pull the plug cap off the spark plug and wear protective gloves! CAUTION: Start the Power Cut only after complete assembly and inspection. 19
