Maintaining The Air Filter; Adjusting The Idle Speed - Remington RM4625 Manual Del Operador

MAINTAINING THE AIR FILTER

WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, always stop
the engine and allow it to cool before cleaning or maintaining
the unit.
Failure to maintain the air filter can result in poor performance or can
cause permanent damage to the engine. Engine failure due to
improper air filter maintenance is not covered by the product warranty.
Cleaning the Air Filter
1. Open the air filter cover by unscrewing the cover screw (Fig. 10).
2. Remove the air filter and the screen that sits behind it (Fig. 10).
3. Wash the air filter in detergent and water. Rinse the air filter
thoroughly and allow it to dry.
4. Lightly coat the air filter with clean SAE 30 oil.
5. Squeeze the air filter to spread and remove excess oil.
6. Replace the air filter and the screen that sits behind it (Fig. 10).
NOTE: Operating the unit without the air filter and air filter cover will
VOID the warranty.
7. Insert the hooks on the air filter housing into the slots on the air
filter cover (Fig. 11).
8. Swing the air filter cover to the right and align the cover screw
with the cover screw hole (Fig. 11). Tighten the cover screw to
secure the air filter cover.
NOTE: Do not over tighten, as this may strip the screw.

ADJUSTING THE IDLE SPEED

WARNING:
The tines may rotate during idle speed
adjustments. Wear protective clothing and observe all
safety instructions to prevent serious personal injury.
If the engine will not idle properly:
1. Drain the fuel tank and add fresh, properly-mixed fuel. Refer to
Oil and Fuel.
2. Clean the air filter. Refer to Maintaining the Air Filter.
If the engine still will not idle properly, adjust the idle speed:
1. Start the engine. Refer to Starting and Stopping.
2. Release the throttle control and let the engine idle.
• If the engine stops, increase the idle speed. Use a small
Phillips screwdriver to turn the idle speed screw clockwise,
1/8 of a turn at a time, until the engine idles smoothly (Fig. 12).
• If the tines rotate when the engine idles, reduce the idle speed.
Turn the idle speed screw counterclockwise, 1/8 of a turn at a
time, until the tines stop moving (Fig. 12).
If the engine still will not idle properly, and any of the following
conditions are true, take the unit to an authorized service dealer:
• the engine hesitates or stalls on acceleration
• there is a loss of engine power
