To examine the spark plug
CAUTION: Always use the recommended
spark plug type. Incorrect spark plug type
can cause damage to the product.
•
Examine the spark plug if the engine is low on
power, is not easy to start or does not operate
correctly at idle speed.
•
To decrease the risk of unwanted material on the
spark plug electrodes, obey these instructions:
a) Make sure that the idle speed is correctly
adjusted.
b) Make sure that the fuel mixture is correct.
c) Make sure that the air filter is clean.
•
If the spark plug is dirty, clean it and make sure that
the electrode gap is correct, refer to
on page 15 . (Fig. 43)
•
Replace the spark plug if it is necessary.
To examine the fuel system
•
Examine the fuel tank cap and the seal for the fuel
tank cap to make sure that there are no damages.
•
Examine the fuel hose to make sure that there are
no leaks. If the fuel hose is damaged, let a service
agent replace it.
To adjust the clutch wire
If the drive starts to feel slow, it is necessary to adjust
the clutch wire.
1. To increase the drive speed, turn the adjuster screw
counterclockwise.
Note: If the drive is engaged when you do not pull
the drive bail, it is necessary to extend the wire.
2. To extend the wire and decrease the drive speed,
turn the adjustment screw clockwise. (Fig. 44)
If the drive feels slow also after the adjustment, let an
