WARNING: If the cutting unit does not
stop when you adjust the idle speed,

adjusted or repaired.

To clean the cooling system
The cooling system keeps the engine temperature
down. The cooling system includes the cooling fins on
the cylinder (A), the cylinder cover (B) and the air intake
through the crankcase (C).
(Fig. 30)

tank and crankcase is easily blocked by
leaves. Clean the air intake fully.

more frequently if it is necessary.
2. Make sure that the cooling system is not dirty or
blocked.

spark plug type. Incorrect spark plug type
can cause damage to the product.

spark plug electrodes, obey these instructions:
a) Make sure that the idle speed is correctly
adjusted.

the electrode gap is correct, refer to
on page 13 . (Fig. 31)
