Maintenance
Do a check of the fuel filter for contamination and the fuel hose for cracks or oth-
er defects. Replace parts if it is necessary.
Do a check of all the cables and connections.
If it is necessary to replace the clutch, clutch springs or clutch drum, speak to
your servicing dealer.
Replace the spark plug. Make sure that the spark plug is fitted with a suppres-
sor.
To do maintenance on the muffler
The muffler decreases the noise level and points the
exhaust gases away from the operator.
WARNING: Mufflers that have catalytic
converters get very hot during operation and
will stay hot for some time after you stop the
product. This also applies at idle speed. If
you touch the product it can result in burns
to the skin. Think about of the risk of fire.
1. Stop the product and let it cool down.
2. Make sure that the muffler is correctly attached and
that it is not damaged.
3. Remove the screw that holds the spark arrestor
screen.
4. Clean the spark arrestor screen if it is blocked or
replace it if it is damaged.
CAUTION: The spark arrestor screen must
be replaced if it is damaged. Do not use a
product without, or with a broken, spark
arrestor screen if you must have a spark
arrestor screen in your area. Obey local
regulations and maintenance instructions.
CAUTION: If the spark arrestor screen is
frequently blocked it can be a sign that the
performance of the catalytic converter is
decreased. Turn to your servicing dealer to
examine the muffler. A blocked spark
arrestor screen will cause overheating and
result in damage to the cylinder and piston.
