1.1       Long-life air filter system with cyclone
          pre-separation

The long-life air filter system with cyclone pre-
separation provides extended filter service intervals
to more than a year on average.
For this reason:
The filter cover should only be removed and the
air filter replaced if there is a noticeable loss of
power or more than a year of extended use has
passed since the last filter change. Do not clean
the air filter as damage to the filter element and
consequential engine damage could occur.

                                                                                    4

1.2      Principle of operation, stratified                  1.2.1   Mechanical design
         scavenging
A cushion of air (fuel-free) separates the unburned
fuel-air mixture from the exhaust gas. This cushion
of air is located in front of the fuel-air mixture. At the
start of the exhaust and scavenging cycle, fuel-free
air enters from the transfer ports into the combustion
chamber and scavenges the exhaust gas into the
exhaust port. The fuel-free air prevents the
unburned fuel-air mixture from entering the exhaust             4
port, thus reducing the environmental impact by
reducing scavenging losses and fuel consumption.

Fresh fuel-air mixture (--- arrows) streams into the crankcase. At the same time, the piston opens the fuel-
free air port (2) via the control slot (1) in the piston skirt and fresh air (: : : arrows) streams through the control
slot into the transfer ports (3). The fuel-air mixture in the combustion chamber is compressed.

1.2.3   Expansion and crankcase compression

Shortly before the piston reaches top dead center (TDC), the mixture is ignited by the spark plug.
The fuel-free air (: :: arrows) in the transfer ports and the fuel-air mixture (--- arrows) in the crankcase are
then compressed as the piston travels downward.

The piston continues its downward movement, opening first the exhaust port and then the transfer ports.
The fuel-free air (: :: arrows) streams into the combustion chamber and scavenges the exhaust gas
(--- arrows) from the combustion chamber.

1.2.5    Return flow and scavenging

                                                                                                          000TI047 KN

When the fuel-free air has scavenged the exhaust gas (--- arrows) from the combustion chamber, fresh fuel-
air mixture (--- arrows) streams into the combustion chamber and mixes with the remaining fuel-free air.

The fuel-free air and fuel-air mixture follow separate paths. Each has its own throttle shutter. The throttle
shutter (2) of the fuel-free air path is actuated via a throttle rod (3) from the throttle shutter (1) of the fuel-air

Extracted from the manufacturer's 2012 service catalogue. 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.
