CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENT
Engine Break-In

New engines must be operated a minimum of two tanks of fuel before

carburetor adjustments can be made. During the break-in period your

engine performance will increase and exhaust emissions will stabilize.

Idle speed can be adjusted as required.

High Altitude Operation

This engine has been factory adjusted to maintain satisfactory starting,

emission, and durability performance up to 1,100 feet mean sea level

(MSL) (96.0 kPa and below). To maintain proper engine operation and

emission compliance above 1,100 feet MSL the carburetor may need to

be adjusted by an authorized ECHO service dealer.

IMPORTANT

If the engine is adjusted for operation above 1,100 feet MSL, the

carburetor must be re-adjusted when operating the engine below

1,100 feet MSL, otherwise severe engine damage can result.
