Adjusting The Carburetor - Makita DPC 7000 Owner's And Safety Manual

Adjusting the carburetor
NOTE:
The grinding parts are equipped with an electronic ignition to limit the speed. The carburetor also has a fixed jet which
cannot be adjusted.
At the factory the idling speed has been set to approx. 2,300 l/min., but the running-in process
of
a new engine may require
slight readjustment of the idling speed.
I
Set the idling speed with a screwdriver (width of blade: 4 mm).
Thescrewdrivershown (A/1) (order number 944340001) hasa
molded-on lug to assist in adjustment.
For correct adjustment of the idling speed the following
steps must be carried out:
1. Start the engine and run it until
it is warm (about 3
-
5 minutes).
2. Switch off the engine.

CAREFUL! This exposes the carburetor intake! Dust or
dirt particles that get into the carburetor can ruin the
engine! Make sure your clothing is free of dust and dirt
particles, your tools are clean, and the working area is
clean. Do
not
lay a cloth or similar material on the
carburetor intake opening!

If the cut-off disc is still turning when the engine is running,
unscrew the adjusting screw of the throttle valve (C/4) until
the cut-off disc is no longer turning. When the engine is left
running at idling speed, loosen the screw a little.
Now the acceleration from idling speed to maximum speed
must be tested byabruptlyoperating the throttle lever. If the
acceleration is too slow, the idling speed jet screw (C/5) must
be loosened slightly (max. 1/8 of a revolution) and the throttle
valve adjusting screw (C/4) tightened slightly.
-
If the engine cannot be adjusted as described under point
5, a basic adjustment must be carried out with the engine
switched off.
