SPARK PLUG SERVICE

To service spark plug, remove the 8 screws securing the side panel. See Figure D.4.

FIGURE D.4 - SIDE PANEL SCREW LOCATIONS

CLEAN OR REPLACE SPARK PLUG: Clean or replace the spark plug after every 100 hours of opera- tion or every season, whichever comes first. Do not blast the spark plug clean with an abrasive cleaning device. Clean the plug by scraping it or by using a wire brush. Wash the plug with a commercial solvent. After cleaning or when installing a new spark plug, set the terminal gap to .025 inch (.65 mm) with a feeler gauge. See Figure D.5.

Replace or clean engine maintenance parts per the interval outlined in the engine owner’s manual.

OPERATIONAL CLEARANCE

Approximately 12-18” of clearance should be around this unit during operation for air flow. Reducing this clearance will reduce air flow to the machine causing operational temperatures to increase. Possible damage to the machine can result if to much air flow is restricted.
