English / USA Operating Instructions If the engine does not start If you did not turn the choke knob to e quickly enough after the engine began to fire, the combustion chamber has flooded. : Turn the choke knob to e. : Set slide control, interlock lever and throttle trigger to starting throttle position. : Start the engine by pulling the starter rope firmly. 10 to 20 pulls may be necessary. If the engine still does not start: 10 : Push the slide control to STOP-O. : Pull off the spark plug boot (10). :. Unscrew and dry off the spark plug. 249BA008 KN : Open the throttle wide. : Crank the engine several times with the starter to clear the combustion chamber. : Refit the spark plug and connect the spark plug boot - push it down firmly. : Set the slide control to START : Set choke knob to e - even if engine is cold. : Now start the engine. Throttle cable adjustment : Check adjustment of the throttle cable - see "Adjusting the Throttle Cable". Fuel tank run until dry : After refueling, press the fuel pump bulb at least five times - even if bulb is still filled with fuel. : Set choke knob according to engine temperature. : Now start the engine During break-in period A factory new machine should not be run at high revs (full throttle off load) for the first three tank fillings. This avoids unnecessary high loads during the break-in period. As all moving parts have to bed in during the break-in period, the frictional resistances in the engine are greater during this period. The engine develops its maximum power after about 5 to 15 tank fillings. During operation After a long period of full-throttle operation, allow engine to run for a while at idle speed so that the heat in the engine can be dissipated by flow of cooling air. This protects enginemounted components (ignition, carburetor) from thermal overload. After finishing work Wait for engine to cool down. Drain the fuel tank. Store the machine in a dry place. Check tightness of nuts and screws (not adjusting screws) at regular intervals and retighten as necessary. 20 KM 110, KM 130

If the engine does not start
If you did not turn the choke knob to
e
quickly enough after the engine began to
fire, the combustion chamber has
flooded.
:
Turn the choke knob to
e
.
:
Set slide control, interlock lever and
throttle trigger to starting throttle
position.
:
Start the engine by pulling the
starter rope firmly. 10 to 20 pulls
may be necessary.
If the engine still does not start:
:
Push the slide control to
STOP
-
O
.
:
Pull off the spark plug boot
(
10
).
.
:
Unscrew and dry off the spark plug.
:
Open the throttle wide.
:
Crank the engine several times with
the starter to clear the combustion
chamber.
:
Refit the spark plug and connect the
spark plug boot – push it down
firmly.
:
Set the slide control to
START
:
Set choke knob to
e
– even if
engine is cold.
:
Now start the engine.
Throttle cable adjustment
:
Check adjustment of the throttle
cable – see "Adjusting the Throttle
Cable".
Fuel tank run until dry
:
After refueling, press the fuel pump
bulb at least five times – even if
bulb is still filled with fuel.
:
Set choke knob according to engine
temperature.
:
Now start the engine
During break-in period
A factory new machine should not be run
at high revs (full throttle off load) for the
first three tank fillings. This avoids
unnecessary high loads during the
break-in period. As all moving parts
have to bed in during the break-in
period, the frictional resistances in the
engine are greater during this period.
The engine develops its maximum
power after about 5 to 15 tank fillings.
During operation
After a long period of full-throttle
operation, allow engine to run for a while
at idle speed so that the heat in the
engine can be dissipated by flow of
cooling air. This protects engine-
mounted components (ignition,
carburetor) from thermal overload.
After finishing work
Wait for engine to cool down. Drain the
fuel tank. Store the machine in a dry
place. Check tightness of nuts and
screws (not adjusting screws) at regular
intervals and retighten as necessary.
