Maintenance

Checking and adjusting the choke wire

If the engine is producing black smoke or is difficult to start then the choke wire (upper wire) may be incorrectly adjusted.

If doubts arise, contact your service representative.

If it is necessary to adjust the choke, proceed as follows:

1Release the clamping screw that secures the wire casing and set the choke control to maximum choke.

2Check that the throttle wire is attached to the upper lever, see diagram.

3Pull the choke wire casing to the far right and tighten the clamping screw.

Replacement of fuel filter

Replace the fuel filter every 100 running hours (once per season) or more frequently if it is clogged.

Replace the filter as follows:

1Open the engine cover.

2Move the hose clips away from the filter. Use a pair of flat pliers.

3Pull off the filter from the hose ends.

4Press the new filter into the ends of the hoses. If necessary apply liquid detergent to the ends of the filter to facilitate connection.

5Push the hose clips back on the filter and tighten.

Replacing the air filter

!

WARNING! The exhaust system is hot. Let it

cool before starting to replace the air filter.

 

If the engine seems to lack power or does not run smoothly this may be because the air filter is clogged. It is therefore important to replace the air filter at regular intervals (see Maintenance/Maintenance Schedule for the correct service interval).

Replace the air filter as follows:

1Remove the air filter unit by pressing on the catches with your fingers.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Never run the engine without the air filter fitted.

The filters must not be oiled. They must be fitted dry.

2Remove the pre-filter and paper filter from the air filter unit.

3 Clean the pre-filter by washing it with water and detergent.

4Dry the pre-filter properly.

5Tap the paper filter against a hard surface to shake off the dust.
