MAINTENANCE

 Clean any dirt from around base of spark plug.

 Remove spark plug using spark plug wrench (not

included).

 Inspect spark plug for damage, and clean with a wire

brush before reinstalling. If insulator is cracked or

chipped, spark plug should be replaced. For replacement

spark plug, see Product Specifications earlier in this

manual or the accompanying engine manual, if applicable.

 Measure plug gap. The correct gap is 0.024−0.028 in.

(0.60-0.70 mm). To widen gap, if necessary, carefully

bend the ground (top) electrode. To lessen gap, gently

tap ground electrode on a hard surface.

 Seat spark plug in position; thread in by hand to prevent

cross-threading.

NOTICE:

Be careful not to cross-thread the spark plug. Cross-

threading will seriously damage the product.

 Tighten with wrench (not included) to compress washer.

If spark plug is new, use 1/2 turn to compress washer

appropriate amount. If reusing old spark plug, use 1/8 to

1/4 turn for proper washer compression.

NOTE: An improperly tightened spark plug will become

very hot and could damage the engine.

CLEANING THE EXHAUST PORT AND

MUFFLER

lubricant used, and/or your operating conditions, the exhaust

port and muffler may become blocked with carbon deposits.

If you notice a power loss with your gas-powered products,

you may need to remove these deposits to restore perfor-

mance. We highly recommend that only qualified service

technicians perform this service.
