(5910 850 1009) or STIHL EDT 7 (5910 850 1008)

engine speed in the TS 700 with new ignition
system and in all TS 800 models.
The previous tachometers EDT 5 and EDT 6 cannot
be used with these machines. The additional pulses
delivered by the second magnet pole pair would
lead to measurement errors.

4.       Service note
         (adjustment of air shutter linkage)
To ensure optimum combustion, the air shutter must
open with a delay in relation to the throttle shutter.
If the air shutter opens too soon, the mixture will be
too lean and the engine will overheat and/or it will be
inadequately lubricated. For this reason, the air
shutter linkage (between throttle shutter and air
shutter) must be carefully and precisely set. The
adjustment procedure is therefore described again
here (in addition to the description in the service
manual).

                                                                                                                            376TI011 KN

Most of these PDFs embed fonts with a shifted character map, so the text above was recovered rather than copied — read it as a faithful but imperfect transcription, and treat the page image above each block as the authority where the two disagree — the figures exist only there, because they are vector drawings that text extraction cannot keep.
