The spark plug is used to ignite the air/fuel mixture inside the engine. The spark plug has electrodes on one end and
an electrical terminal on the other. The spark plug requires regular maintenance.
SPARK PLUG CLEANING AND GAP CHECKING
The spark plug should be checked and cleaned as per the maintenance schedule.
1. Remove any carbon deposits on the spark plug (A) electrodes (B) with
a wire brush.
2. Clean the spark plug threads and the electrical terminal (C) on the top.
To check and adjust the spark plug "gap":
1. Use "feeler" or "thickness" gauges to measure the existing gap. The
gauge must drag a little when being slid between the electrodes (B) –
this means the measurement is fairly accurate.
2. Adjust the gap to within specification (see Specifications). If the gap
needs to be reduced, gently tap the electrode as required. If the gap
needs to be increased, use pliers to gently pull the electrode as required.
3. Measure the gap again and ensure it is within the specified range
before re-installing the spark plug.
SPARK PLUG REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
1. Pull the electrical lead (A) from the terminal on top of the spark plug (B).
2. Clean the area around the spark plug so that no dirt or other material can enter the engine when the spark
plug is removed.
3. Use the spark plug tool (C) to remove the spark plug (rotate left).
TO RE-INSTALL THE SPARK PLUG
1. Place the spark plug in its hole and screw it in (rotate right) until "finger tight".
2. Use the spark plug tool to tighten the spark plug approximately one quarter turn (do not over-tighten).
3. Place the electrical lead over the spark plug terminal and push it down so that it connects firmly terminal.
REPLACING THE BLADES
ATTENTION: For more safety, before performing this operation check that the machine is
completely off and the spark plug removed. Remember to drain the oil from the oil tank before
removing the blade.
If you wish to replace the blades, remove the bolt. Proceed to the installation as shown in the picture. Tighten the
screw. Torsion tension should be 40Nm. Replace the bolt when replacing the blade.
