MAINTENANCE
Spark plug
The spark plug condition is inuenced by:
Incorrect carburettor adjustment.
An incorrect fuel mixture (too much or incorrect type of
oil).
A dirty air lter.
These factors cause deposits on the spark plug electrodes,
which may result in operating problems and starting
difculties.
If the machine is low on power, difcult to start or runs poorly
at idle speed: always check the spark plug rst before taking
any further action. If the spark plug is dirty, clean it and check
that the electrode gap is 0.5 mm (0,020"). The spark plug
should be replaced after about a month in operation or earlier
if necessary.
CAUTION! Always use the recommended spark plug type!
Use of the wrong spark plug can damage the piston/cylinder.
