cooling system

Level 2.

Parts Required: None if you are careful.

IMPORTANT

To maintain proper engine operating temperatures, cooling air must pass freely through the cylinder fin area. This flow 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 grass 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 or cleaning of cooling fins is considered “Normal Maintenance.” Any failure attributed to lack of maintenance is not warranted.

1.Remove spark plug lead.

2.Remove air cleaner cover.

3.Remove engine cover (B).

IMPORTANT

DO NOT use a metal scraper to remove dirt from the cylinder fins.

4.Use brush to remove dirt from the cylinder fins.

5.Remove ignition wires from clip for cleaning.

6.Remove grass and leaves from the grid between the recoil starter and fuel tank.

7.Assemble components in reverse order.
