CAUTION:
Do not adjust the carburetor until the machine has been 
completely assembled and checked! Do not adjust the 
carburetor without a tachometer!
Carburetor adjustment is necessary for optimum engine 
performance, for safer and more economical operation. 
Adjust the carburetor only with the engine warm, a clean 
air Þ lter, and properly installed cutting tool.
Carburetor adjustment may be done only by a MAKITA 
service centre. Improper adjustment can cause damage 
to the engine.
In order to comply with new emissions legislation, limits have 
been placed on the carburetor adjusting screws (H) and (L).
This limitation (to about 180 degrees) prevents an exces-
sively rich mixture. 
This in turn ensures compliance with 
emissions rules as well as optimum engine performance and 
economical fuel consumption.
You will need a tachometer (part No. 950 233 210) for op-
timum adjustment. Exceeding the maximum permissible 
speed can lead to overheating and under-lubricating, and 
damage to the engine! 
Factory setting of adjusting screws (H) and (L): Turned out 
almost all the way (counterclockwise).
Use a screwdriver (blade width 4 mm, part No. 944 340 001) 
to adjust the screws.
 
 
For proper adjustment, proceed as follows:
Checking adjusting screw (H)
Before starting the engine make sure that adjusting screw (H) is 
turned out counterclockwise until it reaches a noticeable stop. 
The limitations do not prevent excessively lean running!
 1.  Start engine and let it warm up (3-5 minutes)
 2. Set idle
 3. Check acceleration 
 4.
  Set maximum permissible speed
 5.  Check idle speed
 
2. Set idle
 
Set the idle speed per the technical speciÞ cations.
 
Turning the adjusting screw (S) in (clockwise) increases the 
idle speed. Turning it out (counter-clockwise) lowers the idle 
speed. The cutting tool must not rotate!
3. Check acceleration
 
When the throttle is pressed, the engine should go smoothly 
from idle to high speed.
 
Turn adjusting screw (L) out (counterclockwise) in small 
increments until acceleration is good.
4.  Set maximum permissible speed 
 
Set the maximum speed by minimal adjustments of 
the adjusting screw (H) in accordance with the tech-
nical speciÞ cations. Turning the adjusting screw (H
clockwise increases the speed. Never exceed the 
maximum permissible speed!
 
 
For units with electronic engine speed limitation: 
No tachometer is necessary to determine the 
maximum permissible speed, since exceeding 
this speed will result in clearly audible ignition 
misses!
5.  Check idle speed 
 
Check the idle speed after setting the top speed (the 
cutting tool must not rotate!).
 
 
Repeat the adjustment procedure starting at Step 2, 
until the engine runs with the correct idle speed, good 
acceleration, and maximum permissible speed.
