2 Air Cleaner Service 1. Press the upper latch tabs and rotate the top of the cover outward to open and remove the cover. 2. Remove the paper air filter and the foam pre-filter. 3. Inspect the foam pre-filter, and replace it if damaged or excessively dirty. 4. Inspect the paper air filter. NOTE: If the paper air filter is excessively dirty, damaged or is wet with oil or fuel, replace it. 5. Remove dirt from the air cleaner body and cover using a moist rag. Do not wipe dirt into the air duct.
PAGE 14
Spark Plug Service NOTE: Spark plugs of the wrong size or incorrect heat range can cause severe engine damage. High Voltage Ignition Systems can be Dangerous - Use Caution when Servicing Ignition Systems 1. Disconnect the spark plug boot and thoroughly clean the spark plug area. 2. Remove the spark plug from the engine. 3. Inspect the spark plug for excessively worn electrodes, chips or cracks in the insulator, or excessive deposits. 4. Measure the electrode gap and adjust if necessary.
PAGE 15
2 Valve Clearance Inspection and Adjustment NOTE: Valve clearance inspection and adjustment must be done with the engine cold . 1. Rotate Engine to TDC (top-dead-center) of the compression stroke. 2. Remove the valve cover. Be sure both valves are completely closed and the decompression arm is not holding the valve open. 3. Measure the clearance between the rocker Valve Stem arm and the valve stem with a feeler gauge. Intake: 0.0039” (0.10 mm) Exhaust: 0.0059” (0.15 mm) Rocker Arm 4.

Fuel Filter and Hose Replacement - Fuel is Extremely Flammable - Use Extreme Caution When Servicing the Fuel System 1. Drain the fuel tank into an approved container. NOTE: Ensure fuel system contains no fuel to prevent leak when the fuel filter is replaced. 2. If necessary, remove air filter cover and base as outlined in this manual. 3. Release the fuel filter / fuel hose clamps (A) and remove the hose from the fittings. 4. Remove the fuel filter from the fuel tank fitting. 5.

2 Auto Choke System / Function A. Governor Rod - Connected to the governor system which controls the angle of the throttle plate and sets engine operating RPM. B. Thermal Spring Rod - Connected to the thermal spring, which mounts on the muffler. The thermal spring adjusts the choke plate angle as the engine temperature changes. C. Air Vane Rod - Connected to the air vane in the blower housing which will fully open the choke plate at full operating RPM at any engine temperature.
