MAINTENANCE
Spark plug
The spark plug condition
is influenced by:
• Incorrect
carburetor
adjustment.
• An incorrect fuel mixture
(too much or in-
correct type of oil).
• Poor quality gasoline
and/or oil
• A dirty air filter.
These factors cause deposits
on the spark
plug electrodes,
which may result in operat-
ing problems
and starting
difficulties.
If the machine
is low on power, difficult
to
start or runs poorly at idle speed: always
check the spark
plug first before taking
any further action, if the spark
plug is dirty,
clean it and check that the electrode
gap is
0.024"
(0.6 mm) The spark plug should
be
replaced
after about a month in operation
or
earlier if necessary.
0.024" (0.6 ram)
CAUTION!
Always
use the recommended
spark p_ug type! Use of the wrong
spark
plug can damage
the piston/cylinder.
