Abstract
The invention is directed to an adjusting device for a throttle pull of an internal combustion engine for a portable handheld work apparatus. A pull wire ( ) of the throttle pull acts on the carburetor ( ) of the engine. The carburetor ( ) is attached to the inlet of the engine with a spacer ( ) disposed therebetween. A tension piece ( ) of the adjusting device is pivotally journalled on the spacer ( ) by a bolt. The pull wire ( ) lies with a segment thereof on the outwardly pivotable arm of the tension piece ( ). The position of the tension piece can be adjusted with the adjusting screw ( ). The adjusting screw can be screwed out of the pivot arm axially in the direction toward a support. The tension piece ( ) is configured as one piece with the bolt ( ) and is securely held with a form-tight holding arrangement in the axial direction of the bolt ( ). The adjusting device is cost-effective and provides for a reliable and precise adjustment.
