MAINTENANCE
CAUTION! Never use a machine with a defective muffler.
that the electrode gap is 0.5 mm (0,020"). The spark plug
should be replaced after about a month in operation or earlier
if necessary.
WARNING! Mufflers fitted with catalytic
!
converters get very hot during use and
remain so for some time after stopping.This
also applies at idle speed. Contact can result
in burns to the skin. Remember the risk of
fire!
Cooling system
CAUTION! Always use the recommended spark plug type!
Use of the wrong spark plug can damage the piston/cylinder.
Air filter
To keep the working temperature as low as possible the
machine is equipped with a cooling system.

Air intake on the starter.
Fins on the flywheel.
Cooling fins on the cylinder.
Cylinder cover (directs cold air over the cylinder).
Clean the cooling system with a brush once a week, more
often in demanding conditions. A dirty or blocked cooling
system results in the machine overheating which causes
damage to the piston and cylinder.
Cleaning the air filter
Spark plug
Remove the air filter cover and take out the filter. Wash it
clean in warm, soapy water.Ensure that the filter is dry before
refitting it.
An air filter that has been in use for a long time cannot be
cleaned completely.The filter must therefore be replaced with
a new one at regular intervals. A damaged air filter must
always be replaced.
The spark plug condition is influenced by:
•
•
Incorrect carburettor adjustment.
An incorrect fuel mixture (too much or incorrect type of
oil).
If the machine is used in dusty conditions the air filter should
be soaked in oil.See instructions under the heading Oiling the
air filter.
•
A dirty air filter.
These factors cause deposits on the spark plug electrodes,
which may result in operating problems and starting
difficulties.
If the machine is low on power, difficult to start or runs poorly
at idle speed: always check the spark plug first before taking
any further action. If the spark plug is dirty, clean it and check
