Troubleshooting

!WARNING: Always disconnect the spark plug wire before servicing your machine.

Please refer to your engine manufacturer's owner's manual for additional engine troubleshooting information.

Engine

 

Engine won't start

Ö Check for adequate fresh fuel. Also check to see that the fuel line

 

isn't obstructed and that the air cleaner is free of dirt and debris.

 

Ö If the Electric-Starting Model won't start with the key, try starting the

 

engine with the recoil starter. If the engine starts, the battery may

 

simply be low on charge, it could be dead, or a connection may be

 

loose. See below for battery maintenance. Also, check the wiring

 

connections to the battery.

 

Ö The spark plug may be fouled. In this case, replace it. See your

 

engine manufacturer's owner's manual for more information.

Engine lacks power

Ö Check to make sure that your engine has proper the amount of oil.

 

Ö Check the air intake holes on top of the engine. They should be

 

free and clear of debris. If they get clogged, the engine may be

 

damaged by overheating.

 

Ö Check the air cleaner, and carburetor as described in your engine

 

manufacturer's owner's manual. If the carburetor needs adjusting,

 

call us at 1(800)DR-OWNER(376-9637) so we can recommend a

 

DR® Friendly Service Center in your area.
