then when new
1. Check oil fuel mixture
2. Air filter is dirty
3. Spark arrestor screen is dirty
1. Operating the product at part
throttle
2. Check oil/fuel mixture
3. Air filter is dirty
Solution
1. Remove the spark plug. Reattach the spark plug
cap and lay the spark plug on the metal cylinder.
Pull the starter cord and watch for a spark at the
spark plug tip. If there is no spark, repeat the
test with a new spark plug.
2. Push primer bulb until the bulb is full of fuel. If
the bulb does not fill, the primary fuel delivery
system is blocked. If the primer bulb fills, the
engine may be flooded. (See next item.)
3. Remove the spark plug. Turn the product so
that the spark plug hole is aimed at the ground.
Make sure the choke lever is set to
pull the starter cord 10 to 14 times. This clears
excess fuel from the engine. Clean and reinstall
the spark plug. With the trigger fully depressed,
pull the starter cord 3 times. If the engine does
not start, set the choke lever to
low normal starting instructions. If the engine
still fails to start, repeat the procedure with a
new spark plug.
4. Contact an authorized service dealer.
1. Use fresh fuel and the correct 2-cycle oil mix.
2. Clean the air filter.
3. Clean the spark arrester.
1. Operate the product at full throttle.
2. Use fresh fuel and the correct 2-cycle oil mix.
3. Clean the air filter.
