MAINTENANCE

string head. Line should be pushed in until approximately 1 in. protrudes from the holes on the top of the string head.

Remove old line by pulling it from the holes located on the top of the string head.

CLEANING THE EXHAUST PORT AND MUFFLER

NOTE: Depending on the type of fuel used, the type and amount of lubricant used, and/or your operating conditions, the exhaust port, muffler, and/or spark arrestor screen may become blocked with carbon deposits. If you notice a power loss with your gas powered tool, you may need to remove these deposits to restore performance. We highly recommend that only qualified service technicians perform this service.

SPARK ARRESTOR

The spark arrestor must be cleaned or replaced every 50 hours or yearly to ensure proper performance of your prod- uct. Spark arrestors may be in different locations depending on the model purchased. Please contact your nearest service dealer for the location of the spark arrestor for your model.

Idle Speed Adjustment

See Figure 31.

If the cutting attachment turns at idle, the idle speed screw needs adjusting on the engine. Turn the idle speed screw counterclockwise to reduce the idle RPM and stop the cut- ting attachment movement. If the cutting attachment still moves at idle speed, contact a service dealer for adjustment and discontinue use until the repair is made.

WARNING:

The cutting attachment should never turn at idle. Turn the idle speed screw counterclockwise to reduce the idle RPM and stop the cutting attachment, or contact a service dealer for adjustment and discontinue use until the repair is made. Serious personal injury may result from the cutting attachment turning at idle.

CLEANING AIR FILTER screen

See Figures 32 - 33.

For proper performance and long life, keep air filter screen clean.

Remove the air filter cover by pushing down on the latch with your thumb while gently pulling on the cover.

Brush the air filter screen lightly to clean.

Replace the air filter cover by inserting the tabs on the bottom of the cover into the slots on the air filter base; push the cover up until it latches securely in place.

FUEL CAP

WARNING:

A leaking fuel cap is a fire hazard and must be replaced immediately.

The fuel cap contains a non-serviceable filter and a check valve. A clogged fuel filter will cause poor engine perfor- mance. If performance improves when the fuel cap is loos- ened, check valve may be faulty or filter clogged. Replace fuel cap if required.

SPARK PLUG replacement

This engine uses a Champion RCJ-6Y or NGK BPMR7A spark plug with .025 in. electrode gap. Use an exact re- placement and replace annually.
