MAINTENANCE
Fitting the starter
• To fit the starter, first pull out the starter cord and place the
starter in position against the crankcase. Then slowly
release the starter cord so that the pulley engages with
the pawls.
• Tighten the screws.
Fuel system
General
• Check that the fuel cap and its seal are not damaged.
• Check the fuel hose. Replace when damaged.
Fuel filter
• The fuel filter sits inside the fuel tank.
• The fuel tank must be protected from contamination when
filling. This reduces the risk of operating disturbances
caused by blockage of the fuel filter located inside the
tank.
• The filter cannot be cleaned but must be replaced with a
new filter when it is clogged. The filter should be
changed at least once per year.
Air filter
The air filter only needs to be checked if the engine drops in
power.
• Loosen the screws. Remove the air filter cover.
• Check the air filter and replace if necessary.
Replacing the air filter
• Remove the screw.
• Replace the air filter.
Drive gear, clutch
• Check the clutch centre, drive gear and clutch spring for
wear.
NOTICE! The air filter must not be cleaned or blown clean
with compressed air. This will damage the filter.
