MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emission control
devices and system may be performed by any non-road engine
repair establishment, individual or authorized service dealer.
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Perform these required maintenance procedures at the frequency
stated in the table. These procedures should also be a part of any
seasonal tune-up.
NOTE: Some maintenance procedures may require special tools
or skills. If you are unsure about these procedures take
your unit to any non-road engine repair establishment,
individual or authorized service dealer.
In order to assure peak performance of your engine, inspection of the
engine exhaust port may be necessary after 50 hours of operation. If
you notice lost RPM, poor performance or general lack of
acceleration, this service may be required. If you feel your engine is in
need of this inspection, refer service to any non-road engine repair
establishment, individual or authorized service dealer for repair. DO
NOT attempt to perform this process yourself as engine damage may
result from contaminants involved in the cleaning process for the port.
WARNING:
To prevent serious injury, never perform
maintenance or repairs with unit running. Always service
and repair a cool unit. Disconnect the spark plug wire to
ensure that the unit cannot start.
