- Kvæler: Move the choke lever to the "FULL CHOKE" position for cold starts.
- Start motor: Pull the recoil starter cord firmly or engage the electric starter.
- Opvarmning: Når motoren starter, skal du gradvist flytte chokerhåndtaget til "RUN"-positionen, efterhånden som motoren varmer op.
- Operation: The engine should now run smoothly. If it runs rough or stalls, refer to the troubleshooting section.
Opretholdelse
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your carburetor and engine.
- Brændstofsystem: Use fresh, clean fuel. Stale fuel can cause carburetor clogging. Consider using a fuel stabilizer if the engine will be stored for extended periods.
- Brændstoffilter: Inspect and replace the fuel filter annually or more frequently if fuel contamination is suspected.
- Luftfilter: Regularly clean or replace the air filter foam. A clogged air filter restricts airflow and can cause rich running conditions.
- Tændrør: Inspect the spark plug annually. Clean or replace it if fouled or worn. Ensure proper gap.
- Rengøring af karburator: If the engine experiences fuel-related issues (e.g., rough idle, stalling, loss of power), the carburetor may need cleaning. This typically involves disassembling the carburetor and cleaning jets and passages with carburetor cleaner. This procedure should only be performed by individuals with mechanical experience.
