2.Keep the engine clean and remove dirt and oil from coiling fins, screen and flywheel for best engine performance and to prevent damage from overheating.

Do not allow dirt to enter the engine when checking oil or adding fuel.

Wire brush carbon deposits from spark plug electrodes and regap at .030 in.

How to Clean the Engine Air Filter

Clean and re-oil every ten (10) hours - more often under extremely dusty conditions.

1.Remove filter element. Separate pre-filter from pleated filter.

2.Clean pre-filter only in detergent and warm water.

3.Squeeze dry.

4.Apply liberal amount of clean engine oil and distribute evenly. Squeeze out excess oil.

5.Install element.

Lubrication

The Model SPS-28 has one grease fitting on the main drive wheel. Apply two strokes of lubricant (PN 883853) from a grease gun each month. (See Fig. 8)

WARNING: To prevent injury and damage, remove the batteries or gasoline before tipping the machine.

To get access to the grease fitting, remove the batteries and hoppers and tip the machine on its side.
