Operation

Spark Plug Service

In order to service the spark plug, you will need a spark plug wrench (commercially available).
Recommended spark plugs: NHSP LD F7TC. To ensure proper engine operation, the spark plug must be
properly gapped and free of deposits.

1. Remove the spark plug cap.

2. Use a spark plug wrench to remove the spark plug.

3. Visually inspect the spark plug. Discard it if the insulator is cracked or chipped. Clean the spark plug with
a wire brush if it is to be reused.

4. Measure the plug gap with a feeler gauge.

5. Check that the spark plug washer is in good condition.

6. After the spark plug is seated, tighten with a spark plug in by hand to prevent cross-threading.

7. After the spark plug is seated, tighten with a spark plug wrench to compress the washer.

NOTE: The spark plug must be securely tightened. An improperly tightened spark plug can become

very hot and could damage the Engine. Never use spark plugs which have an improper heat range. Use only
recommended spark plus or equivalent.
