Maintenance Schedule; Checking The Spark Plug - VITO GARDEN 2T 27cc Mode D'emploi

EN
If, after checking the fuel and
cleaning the air filter, the engine still
will not idle, adjust the idle speed
screw as follows:
1. Start the engine and let it run at a
high idle for a minute to warm up.
Refer to Starting/Stopping.
2. Release the throttle trigger and let
the engine idle. If the engine stops,
use a small phillips or at blade to turn
the idle speed screw in, clockwise,
1/8 of a turn at a time (as needed)
until the engine idles smoothly.
NOTE: Checking the fuel,
cleaning the air filter, and
adjusting the idle speed should
solve most engine problems. If
not and all of the following are
true:
The engine will not idle;
The engine hesitates or stalls on
acceleration;
There is a loss of engine power.
Check the spark plug for proper gap
and condition. If problem still occurs,
have the carburetor adjusted by an
authorized service dealer.

require special tools or skills. If you
are unsure about these procedures,
take your unit to an authorized
service dealer.
Never do maintenance or repairs with
the unit running. Always do
maintenance and repairs on a cool

CHECKING AND CLEANING
THE AIR FILTER
This should be done more frequently
in dusty conditions.
1. Accumulated dust in the air filter
will reduce engine efficiency,
increase fuel consumption and allow
abrasive particles to pass into the
engine. Clean the air filter with pure
gasoline every eight hours to maintain
in a clean condition.
2. Light surface dust can readily be
removed by tapping the filter.
3. Heavy deposits should be washed
out with a suitable solvent.
