2 EMISSION ADJUSTMENT GUIDE

2-1 General adjusting rules

Before starting the unit for adjustment, check the following items.

1. The correct spark plug must be clean and properly gapped.

2. The air filter element must be clean and properly installed.

3. The muffler exhaust port must be clear of carbon.

4. The fuel lines, tank vent and fuel filter are in good condition and clear of debris.

5. The fuel is fresh ( > 89 octane : RON) and properly mixed at 50 : 1 with “ISO L-EGD”2 stroke oil.

2-2 Presetting idle adjust screw, L mixture needle and H mixture needle

1. Turn L mixture needle (A) clockwise until lean

stop to cut and remove easily.

2. Using a sharp knife, give triangle cut between

the stopper wings. Also cut the H limiter cap (B).

NOTE : Be careful when cutting caps, otherwise

injury may result.

3. Pull the caps off with pliers.

NOTE : Do not rock back and forth when removing,

otherwise the needle may be damaged.

4. Turn H and L mixture needles clockwise until

lightly seated.

NOTE : Do not over tighten needles, otherwise

needles tip and seat damage may occur.

5. Turn L mixture needle anticlockwise 1 1/2 turns.

Turn H mixture needle anticlockwise 1 1/2 turns.

6. Turn idle adjust screw (C) anticlockwise and set

the screw until the tip to just contact throttle plate.

Then turn it clockwise 2 3/4 turns.

2-3 Adjusting carburettor

1. Start engine and warm it up well for about 3 - 5

minutes with cycle of 5 seconds at WOT (Wide Open

Throttle) and 10 seconds at idling.

2.Adjust L mixture needle and obtain maximum idle

speed with 2.5 mm wide blade head screw driver

(D).

3. Set idle speed to 3,800 r/min by turning idle adjust

screw.

4. Turn L mixture needle anticlockwise to reduce

idle speed 1,000 r/min to set idle speed in the range

of 2,600 to 3,000 r/min.

NOTE : Engine speed must be allowed to stabilize

a minimum of 20 seconds after each adjustment of

L mixture needle to assure accurate tachometer

readings.

5. Turn H mixture needle clockwise to maximum

WOT engine speed then turn the H mixture needle

clockwise further until engine speed drops 100 to

200 r/min.

6. Immediately return the H mixture needle

anticlockwise to obtain maximum WOT engine

speed with smooth and clear engine sound. Then

turn the H mixture needle anticlockwise 1/8-1/4 turn

further.

7.After adjusting carburettor, install Red limiter cap

on H mixture needle and White limiter cap on L

mixture needle to the rich side stop as shown.

NOTE : Before installing limiter caps, warm caps in

90 °C hot water for smooth installation. Make it sure

to use pliers or appropriate instrument to take

warmed up cap out from the water.

10 SERVICE INFORMATION

2-3 Adjusting carburettor (Continued)

8. Press respective limiter caps to the bottoms using

bar tool like T hex. wrench (E).

IMPORTANT : The limiter caps must be installed

on L and H mixture needles to comply with Emission

Directive.

9. Start engine again and make it sure engine runs

in the range of 2,400 to 3,200 r/min at idling and the

range of 7,900 to 8,500 r/min at WOT. Also make it

sure cutting device would not turn at engine idle

speed and suitable acceleration.

NOTE : Initial carburettor setting (Idle adjust screw,

L and H mixture needles) shown here is to start the

engine after restoration or carburettor change. Idle

adjust screw, L and H mixture needles turn for

designated engine revolution through procedures

indicated here may vary. As long as idle and WOT

engine speed is set in given range, the variance

would be ignorable.
