2 CARBURETTOR ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE
2-1 General adjusting rules
A. Before starting the unit for adjustment, check the following items.
1. The correct spark plug must be clean and properly gapped.
2. The air filter element must be clean and properly installed.
3. The muffler exhaust port must be clear of carbon.
4. The fuel lines, tank vent and fuel filter are in good condition and clear of debris.
5. The fuel is fresh ( > 89 octane : RON ) and properly mixed at 50 : 1 with “ISO L-EGD” or “JASO-FC/FD” 2-
stroke oil.
6. Remove shield from gear case, and install nylon line cutter if 3-tooth blade is installed. Extend nylon line
cutter and cut nylon line cutter lengths to 180 mm (7.0 inches) for proper engine loading to adjust carburettor
on both SRM-265ES(L) and SRM-265ES(U).
B. Start and run engine for 2 minutes alternating rpm between WOT and idle every 5 seconds. Adjust idle speed
to 2,900 +/- 200 r/min by turing idle adjust screw. If engine does not run correctly after this adjustment, proceed to
the next step 2-2.
IMPORTANT : After adjusting carburettor according to the steps 2-2 and 2-3, the limiter plug(s) must
be installed in idle and hi speed (H) mixture needle(s) hole(s) to comply with Emission Directive.
2-2 Presetting Idle mixture needle and hi speed (H) mixture needle
Parts Required : 2 limiter plugs P/N P005-001270
1. Remove the plugs from Idle mixture needle hole
(A) and hi speed mixture needle hole (B) using limiter
plug tool (C) as follows.
1) Put limiter plug tool (C) on limiter plug in mixture needle
hole.
2) Push and turn limiter plug tool anticlockwise 2 turns into
limiter plug slowly.
3) Pull out limiter plug tool with the limiter plug from mixture
needle hole.
NOTE : If plug is damaged and stays in the hole,
use hand auger or pin-shaped tool to scrape, and
lift the cap pieces out of the hole.
2. Turn Idle mixture needle (D) clockwise completely until lightly seated. Then turn it anticlockwise 1 1/2 turns.
Turn hi speed mixture needle (G) clockwise until lightly seated. Then turn it anticlockwise 1 1/2 turns.
3. Turn idle adjust screw (E) anticlockwise until screw tip just touches throttle plate (F). Then turn it in
clockwise 3 1/4 turns.
NOTE : Initial carburettor setting (Idle adjust screw, idle and hi speed mixture needles) shown here is to
start the engine after restoration or carburettor change. Idle adjust screw, idle and hi speed mixture needles
turn for designated engine revolution through procedures indicated here may vary. As long as idle and
WOT engine speed is set in given range, variance would be ignorable.

2-3 Adjusting carburettor
1. Start and warm up engine alternating engine
speed between WOT and idle every 5 seconds for
1 minute.
2. Adjust idle mixture needle (D) to reach maximum
idle speed with 2.5 mm blade screwdriver.
3. Set idle speed to 3,700 r/min by turning idle adjust
screw (E). Engine speed should be stable at 3,700
+/- 50 r/min.
4. Turn idle mixture needle anticlockwise to reduce
engine idle speed 800 r/min to set idle speed at
2,900 r/min. The idle speed range is 2,800 - 3,000
r/min.
NOTE : Engine speed must be allowed to stabilize
a minimum of 20 seconds after each adjustment of
idle mixture needle to assure accurate tachometer
readings.
5. Adjust hi speed mixture needle (G) to reach
maximum WOT engine speed. Then turn hi speed
mixture needle anticlockwise to reduce WOT engine
speed 10 r/min (max. approx. 8,500 r/min).
6. SRM-265ES(L) : Reinstall shield with cutting knife.
Cut nylon line cutter lengths to 152 mm to match
nylon line cutter reach to shield cut knife. Start
engine again and verify engine idle speed ranges
from 2,700 to 3,100 r/min, and WOT engine speed
ranges from 9,400 to 10,400 r/min.
SRM-265ES(U) : Reinstall shield for 3-tooth
blade(230 mm). Start engine and verify engine idle
speed ranges from 2,700 to 3,100 r/min, and WOT
engine speed ranges from 10,200 to 11,200 r/min.
Make sure the nylon line cutter/3-tooth blade(230
mm) does not rotate when engine is idle,and engine
should accelerate smoothly.
7. After adjusting carburettor, insert and secure new
plug(s) (J) P005-001270 deep in the needle holes
per the Emission Directive using limiter plug tool (H).
NOTE : Engine WOT, and idle speed in field
operation may vary from final adjustment
specifications due to changing ambient conditions,
fuel, and engine loads. Safe engine speed variances
should be within the WOT and Idle speed ranges
listed in Section 1-1, otherwise the carburettor
should be readjusted.

3-1 Reassembling 2 Nord-lock washers on Muffler
1. 2 Nord-lock washers (A) are installed to prevent
muffler nuts (B) from loosening. There is a chance
for the 2 Nord-lock washers (A) to drop separately
when loosening muffler nut (B).
2. If 2 Nord-lock washers (A) are separated,
reassemble 2 Nord-lock washers (A) as shown on
Fig.1
NOTE : 2 Nord-lock washers (A) are bonded for
spare parts(No. 92280-05000).

3-2 Adjusting throttle cable
1. When squeezing throttle trigger (A), make sure
throttle plate (B) should be full open at WOT position.
Throttle plate tab (b) should contact with plastic boss
(E).
2. When squeezing throttle trigger (A) without
throttle trigger lockout (C), there is a chance for inner
cable (F) of throttle wire to move a little bit. However
throttle plate (B) should be no movement.
If throttle plate (B) can be moved, adjust nut (D)
using 8 mm spaner not to move throttle plate (B).
NOTE : If the throttle plate (B) moves when
squeezing throttle trigger (A) without throttle trigger
lockout (C), engine speed increases.
