WARNING
○ The cutting attachment may be spinning during carburetor
adjustments.
○ Never start the engine without the complete clutch cover and
tube assembled! 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 basically 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.
NOTE
Standard Idle rpm is 2800 – 3000 min
WARNING
When the engine is idling the cutting attachment must under no
circumstances rotate.
Air fi lter (Fig. 29)
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
Clean the air fi lter daily or more often if working in exceptionally
dusty areas.
