○ Check that the harness is undamaged.
○ If your unit has blade, check the blade guard for
damage or cracks. Change the guard in case of

transport guard is undamaged and that it can be
securely fi tted.
○ Check that nuts and screws are suffi ciently
tightened.
Weekly maintenance
○ Check the starter, especially the cord and return
spring.
○ Clean the exterior of the spark plug.
○ Remove it and check the electrode gap. Adjust it
to 0.024˝ (0.6 mm), or change the spark plug.
○ Check that the angle gear is fi lled with grease up
to 3/4.
○ Clean the air fi lter.
Monthly maintenance
○ Rinse the fuel tank with gasoline.
