•Remove the flexible tubing from the drain valve. Clean the tubing and store in a safe place for future use.

•Clean the drain valve and push the plastic dust cap onto the valve.

•Turn the replacement filter open end up and pour new oil into the filter through the threaded center hole. Fill to the bottom of the threads, then wait a minute or two to allow the oil to be absorbed into the filter material.

•Apply a light coating of clean oil on the gasket of the new oil filter. Thread the filter on by hand until the gasket contacts the oil filter adapter, then tighten the oil filter an additional 2/3 to 1 turn.

•Refill the crankcase with the appropriate quantity and type of oil.

•Check oil level and make sure that oil filler cap, dipstick and drain valve are in place and closed.

Sparkplugs

WARNING: To avoid possi- ble injury, be sure the en- gine is off and has cooled before making any adjust- ments or repairs.

Remove all dirt from around the spark plug before removing.

Use a spark plug wrench to remove the spark plugs.

Check the gap after every 100 hours of operation.

Replace a defective plug with a new plug. Set the spark plug gap at .030 inch. Tighten the plug to 18-22 ft-lbs. See your authorized dealer for the correct replacement plug.

Changing Fuel Filter

WARNING: Do not replace fuel filter when engine is hot.

The engine is equipped with an in-line fuel filter. Visually inspect the filter periodically for a build-up of residue inside the filter body, and for a dirty element which can be indicated by discoloration. Replace the fuel filter when dirty.

Changing Air Cleaner

Check the air cleaner daily or before starting the engine. Check for loose or damaged components and check the condition of the filter element. Remove any buildup of dirt and debris in the air cleaner housing.
