Carburetor adjustment (Fig. 9)
WARNING
● The cutting attachment may be spinning
during carburetor adjustments.
● Never start the engine without the complete
cleaner cover. Otherwise the clutch can
come loose and cause personal injuries.
In the carburetor, fuel is mixed with air. When the
engine is test run at the factory, the carburetor is
adjusted. A further adjustment may be required,
according to climate and altitude. The carburetor has
one adjustment possibility:
T = Idle speed adjustment screw.
Idle speed adjustment (T)
Check that the air fi lter is clean. When the idle speed
is correct, the cutting attachment will not rotate. If
adjustment is required, close (clockwise) the T-screw,
with the engine running, until the cutting attachment
starts to rotate. Open (counter-clockwise) the screw
until the cutting attachment stops. You have reached
the correct idle speed when the engine runs smoothly
in all positions well below the rpm when the cutting
attachment starts to rotate.
If the cutting attachment still rotates after idle speed
adjustment, contact Tanaka dealer.
Air fi lter (Fig. 10)
The air fi lter must be cleaned from dust and dirt in
order to avoid:
○ Carburetor malfunctions.
○ Starting problems.
○ Engine power reduction.
○ Unnecessary wear on the engine parts.
○ Abnormal fuel consumption.
