do the following:
Check that the air filter is in good condition.
If necessary, lean the fuel mix by turning the main
nozzle (A) clockwise.

When finished with working at high altitude, turn
back the main nozzle (A) to the default position.
For carburettor adjustments other than at high
altitude, contact the nearest authorised workshop.

Drilling

To achieve full performance, it s preferable to warm
up the machine on a tamping pad for approximately
5 minutes before drilling.
1. Before drilling, check that the flushing hole in
the drill steel is not blocked.
2. Stand in a stable position with your feet well
away from the inserted tool.
3. Press the inserted tool against the place where
you wish to drill.
4. Increase the engine speed once the drill bit has
collered a footing in the material.
5. Grip the side handle for better control of the
machine.
NOTICE When drilling in softer material, as
concrete, a drill-bit may be needed instead of the
integral drill.
Number of revs
The engine speed is regulated by means of the
throttle lever:

Ground probing
If the machine is started on the top of long tools
such as probing rods, a starter-cord bracket must be
used to prevent the cord from damaging the fuel
tank.
Drilling deep holes
1. Use a short drill and then fully drill into the hole.
2. Change to a longer drill with a slightly smaller
bit diameter (approx. 1mm smaller).
When taking a break
Stop the machine during breaks.
During all breaks, put the machine away so that
there is no risk for unintentional start.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance is a basic requirement for the
continued safe and efficient use of the machine.
Follow the maintenance instructions carefully.
Before starting maintenance on the machine, let
the machine cool down. Also, clean it in order to
avoid exposure to hazardous substances. See
"Dust and fume hazard".
Use only authorised parts. Any damage or
malfunction caused by the use of unauthorised
parts is not covered by warranty or product
liability.
When cleaning mechanical parts with solvent,
comply with appropriate health and safety
regulations and ensure there is satisfactory
ventilation.
