To Clean

Separate pre-cleaner from cartridge and wash in liquid detergent and water. Air dry thoroughly. Do not oil. Reassemble dry pre-cleaner on clean cartridge.

Do not use pressurized air or solvents to clean cartridge. Pressurized air can damage cartridge; solvents will dissolve cartridge.

Clean and Replace Spark Plug

Change the spark plug every 100 hours of operation or once each year, whichever comes first. This will help your engine to start easier and run better.
