12.2 Spark Plug
The correct spark plug with thermal range 200 is
available under the following brands:
BOSCH
WSR6F
CHAMPION RCJ-6Y
NGK
BPMR7A
The correct electrode gap is 0.5 mm.
Check the plug after every 50 operating
hours and replace if electrodes are worn.
12.3 Carburettor adjustment
The carburettor has been adjusted optimally at the
factory. Subject to the operational altitude
(mountains or low lying areas), the carburettor
may require readjustment.
Fig. 14
The carburettor has 3 adjusting screws:
Idling end-stop screw "T"
Low speed mixture screw "L"
High speed mixture screw "H"
Only qualified mechanics must adjust the
regulating screws for idle mixture "L" and
full load mixture "H".
Turn the idling end-stop screw "T" to adjust the
idling speed in accordance with the details
provided in the specification. Use an engine rev
counter for this job.
If the idling speed is too high, turn the idling
end-stop screw "T" anti-clockwise.
If the idling speed is too low (engine stops)
turn the idling end-stop screw "T" clockwise
until the engine runs smoothly.
If the idling speed cannot be set correctly with the
idling end-stop screw "T", request an authorised
service centre to tune the carburettor.
12.4 Storage Hints / Transport Hints
If the unit is to be laid up or kept idle for any length
of time, proceed as follows:
a) Rinse and clean thoroughly. Never use formula
container of your mist blower for storing
chemicals.
b) Run the engine with the fuel tank empty until
the carburettor is empty and the engine stops.
Otherwise gasoline evaporates, and the
remaining lubricant would clog the carburetor
ducts.
c) Remove spark plug and squirt an ounce or two
of corrosion inhibitor (LPS, WD-40 etc.) or plain
engine oil into the cylinder. Crank engine
several times to spread the agent, and then
reinsert spark plug.
d) Please store your machine away from sunlight,
order to protect of the materials against
influence of ultraviolet radiations.
e) Before putting the unit back into service,
remove and clean spark plug; crank engine a
few times with plug removed.
For transport in a vehicle, ensure the
mistblower is well secured to avoid fuel
spillage.
Completely empty the fuel tank before extended
storage or shipment.
