Air Cleaner Service
A properly maintained air filter will help prevent dirt from entering your
engine. Dirt entering the carburetor can be drawn into small passages
in the carburetor and cause premature engine wear. These small
passages can become blocked, causing starting or running problems.
Always use an air filter specified for your engine to ensure it seals and
performs as designed. You will need to clean the filter more frequently
if you operate the engine in very dusty conditions.
NOTICE
Operating the engine without an air filter, or with a damaged filter, will
allow dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear. This type of
damage is not covered by the warranty.
1. Press down on
the air cleaner
cover [1] tabs,
and then
remove the
cover.
2. Remove the
filter [2] from
the air cleaner
housing [3].
3. Inspect the
filter, and
replace it if it is
damaged.
4. Clean the filter by tapping the filter several times on a hard surface
to remove dirt, or blow compressed air (not exceeding 207 kPa)
through the filter from the inside. Never try to brush off dirt;
brushing will force dirt into the fibers.
5. Wipe dirt from the inside of the air cleaner housing and cover,
using a moist rag. Be careful to prevent dirt from entering the air
duct that leads to the carburetor.
6. Reinstall the filter and cover.
Spark Plug Service
Required spark plugs:
NOTICE
Incorrect spark plugs can cause engine damage.
For good performance, the spark plug [1] must be properly gapped
and free of deposits.
1. Disconnect the spark plug
cap [2], and remove any
dirt from around the spark
plug area.
2. Remove the spark plug
with a spark plug wrench.

3. Inspect the spark plug. Replace it
if the electrodes are worn or if the
insulator is cracked or chipped.
Clean the spark plug with a wire
brush if you are going to reuse it.
4. Measure the spark plug electrode
gap with a suitable gauge. The
gap should be 0.7 ~ 0.8 mm.
Correct the gap, if necessary, by
carefully bending the side
electrode.
5. Install the spark plug carefully, by
hand, to avoid cross-threading.
6. After the spark plug seats, tighten with a spark plug wrench to
compress the washer.
If reinstalling the old spark plug, tighten 1/8 to 1/4 turn after the
spark plug seats.
[3]
If installing a new spark plug, tighten 1/2 turn after the spark plug
seats to compress the washer [3].

A loose spark plug can overheat and damage the engine.
Overtightening the spark plug can damage the threads in the
cylinder head.
7. Install the spark plug cap on the spark plug.
