Prevention from carburetor icing
When environmental temperature is higher than
NOTICE:
10°C, always return the lever to normal (sun mark) setting.
Otherwise the engine may be damaged by overheating.
When the environmental temperature is low and humidity is high, water vapor
may freeze inside the carburetor and the engine drives unsteadily (carburetor
icing). Change the setting of the anti icing lever as follows if necessary.
1.
Remove the screw and pull out the anti-icing lever.
2.
Insert the anti-icing lever as follows:
Warmer environment than than 10°C
Set the nub to the sun mark (warmer position).
10°C or colder environment
Set the nub to the the snow mark (anti-icing position).
