POSSIBLE CAUSE

⇒Check the Throttle Lever travel and adjustment. Is the Throttle Lever in the Run position?

⇒Is the Choke lever pushed all the way IN to the RUN position? See page 26.

⇒Is the air filter clean? If it’s dirty, change it following the procedure in the Engine Owner’s Manual.

⇒Are the spark plugs clean? If they are fouled or cracked, change them. If they are oily, leave them out, hold a rag over the spark plug holes and engage the electric starter for a few seconds to blow out any oil in the cylinders, then wipe off the spark plugs and reinsert them.

⇒Are you using fresh, clean unleaded gas? If it’s old, change it. Use a fuel stabilizer if you keep gas longer than two weeks or so.

⇒Does your engine have the right amount of clean oil? If it’s dirty, change it following the procedure on page 33.

⇒If your engine still lacks power, call 1(800) DR-OWNER(376-9637)for assistance.

⇒Check the oil level and adjust as needed.

⇒You may be operating the machine on too great an incline. The machine should be level.

⇒You may be using the wrong oil - too light for the temperature. Refer to your Engine Owner’s Manual for detailed information.

⇒Clean the engine cooling fins and the carburetor housing if they’re dirty.

⇒If the engine still smokes, call 1(800) DR-OWNER(376-9637)for assistance.

⇒The engine speed is too slow causing the belt to slip. Run the engine at full throttle.

⇒Check for loose or damaged Drive Belts; tighten or replace. See page 35.
