1. Remove the oil filler cap and the drain plug
to drain the oil.
2. Reinstall the drain plug and tighten securely.
3. Refill with the recommended oil (0,6 L of SAE

AIR CLEANER SERVICE
A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the car-
buretor. To prevent carburetor malfunction, ser-
vice the air cleaner regularly. Service more fre-
quently when operating the pump in extremely
dusty areas.
Never use gasoline or low flash point solvents
for cleaning the air cleaner element. A fire or
explosion could result.
IMPORTANT: Never run the engine without
the air cleaner.
HOW TO CLEAN AIR FILTER
1. Loosen the wing nut,
remove the air cleaner
cover and remove the air
cleaner filter.
2. Wash the air cleaner fil-
ter in kerosene, then rinse
thoroughly. Allow the ele-
ment to dry thoroughly.
3. Soak the element in
clean engine oil,
squeeze out the excess
oil.
4. Reinstall the air cleaner element and the
cover.
SPARK PLUG SERVICE
To ensure proper engine operation, the spark
plug must be properly gapped and free of de-
posits.
1. Remove the spark plug.
If the engine has been running, the muffler will
be very hot. Be careful not to touch the muffler.
2. Visually inspect the spark plug. Discard it if
the insulator is cracked or chipped. Clean the
spark plug with a wire brush if it is to be reused.
NOTE: Measure the plug gap
with a feeler gauge. The gap
should be 0,7 - 0,8 mm
(0,027 - 0,031 in).
Correct as necessary by bend-
ing the side electrode.
3. Check that the spark plug washer is in good
condition, and thread the spark plug in by hand
to prevent cross-threading.
4. After the spark plug is seated, tighten with a
spark plug wrench to compress the washer.

TROUBLESHOOTING

IN THE CASE OF THE ENGINE WONT START,
VERIFY:
· If the engine switch ON
· If it's there enough fuel on the fuel tank
· If the fuel valve it's at "ON"
IF GASOLINE IS REACHING THE CARBURETOR:
To check, loosen the drain screw with the fuel
valve ON. Fuel should flow out freely. If any fuel
is spilled, make sure the area is dry before test-
ing the spark plug or starting the engine. Fuel
vapor or spilled fuel may ignite.
IF THERE IS NOT A SPARK AT THE SPARK PLUG:
1. Verify by removing the spark plug cap.
Clean any dirt from around the spark plug base,
then remove the spark plug.
2. Install the spark plug in the plug cap.
3. Turn the engine switch ON.
4. Ground the side electrode to any engine
ground, pull the recoil starter to see if sparks
jump across the gap.
5. If there is no sparks, replace the plug. Install
the new plug and try to start the engine accord-
ing to the instructions.
6. If the engine still does not start, take the wa-
ter pump to an authorized Service Center.
