IMPORTANT
To maintain proper engine operating temperatures, cooling air must
pass freely through the cylinder n area. This ow of air carries
combustion heat away from the engine.
Overheating and engine seizure can occur when:
• Air intakes are blocked, preventing cooling air from reaching the
cylinder.
• Dust and debris build-up on the outside of the cylinder. This build-up
insulates the engine and prevents the heat from leaving.
Removal of cooling passage blockages and cleaning of cooling ns is
considered “Normal Maintenance.” Any failure attributed to lack of
maintenance is not warranted.
1. Periodically blow dirt and debris off cooling ns with a compres-
sor and safety nozzle, or;
2. Remove engine and mufer covers, and brush off dirt and debris
using the medium bristle brush.
