Check that the engine cooling air intake is free of leaves, grass, and dirt.

Cleaning the Engine and Muffler

Keep the engine and muffler free from grass cuttings and dirt. Grass cuttings steeped in petrol or oil on the engine can increase the fire risk and impair cooling.

Allow the engine to cool before cleaning. If the dirt is mixed with oil, remove it using a degreasing agent otherwise just water and a brush.

Grass cuttings around the muffler dry quickly and constitute a fire risk. Brush or wash them off when the muffler is cold.
