Cleaning The Air Filter - Tanaka TCS 27EPAP Manual De Instrucciones

English
In the carburetor, fuel is mixed with air. When the engine
is test run at the factory, the carburetor is basically
adjusted. A further adjustment may be required,
according to climate and altitude. The carburetor has
one adjustment possibility:
T = Idle speed adjustment screw.
Idle speed adjustment (T)
Check that the air fi lter is clean. When the idle speed
is correct, the cutting attachment will not rotate. If
adjustment is required, close (clockwise) the T-screw,
with the engine running, until the cutting attachment
starts to rotate. Open (counter-clockwise) the screw
until the cutting attachment stops. You have reached
the correct idle speed when the engine runs smoothly
in all positions well below the rpm when the cutting
attachment starts to rotate.
If the cutting attachment still rotates after idle speed
adjustment, contact your Tanaka dealer.

NOTE
Standard Idle rpm is 2,500 – 3,000 min

Clean the air filter daily or more often if working in
exceptionally dusty areas.
Cleaning the air fi lter
Remove the air fi lter cover and the fi lter (32). Rinse it
in warm soap suds. Check that the fi lter is dry before
reassembly. An air fi lter that has been used for some
time cannot be cleaned completely. Therefore, it must
regularly be replaced with a new one. A damaged fi lter
must always be replaced.
Fuel fi lter (Fig. 29)
Drain all fuel from fuel tank and pull fuel fi lter line from
tank. Pull fi lter element out of holder assembly and rinse
element in warm water with detergent.
Rinse thoroughly until all traces of detergent are
eliminated. Squeeze, do not wring, away excess water
and allow element to air dry.
NOTE
If element is hard due to excessive dirt build-up,
replace it.
Chain oil fi lter (Fig. 30)
Remove the oil fi lter and thoroughly wash it in solvent.
