Change and clean the spark plug (fig. 3)
Check the spark plug air gap at least once a year or when the engine starts poorly. The correct gap be-tween ignition flag and ignition contact is 0.25“/0.63 mm.

• Wait until the engine has cooled down completely.
• Pull the spark plug cap off the spark plug, and use the supplied spark plug wrench to remove the spark plug by turning.
• When the electrode is severely worn out or reveals a strong incrustation, the spark plug must be re-placed with an equivalent plug.
• A strong incrustation of the spark plug can be caused by: Amount of oil is too high in the gasoline mix, poor oil quality, old gasoline mix, or plugged up air filter.
• Screw the spark plug by hand completely into the thread. (Avoid jamming it)
• Use the supplied spark plug wrench to tighten the spark plug.
• When using a torque wrench, the tightening torque is 12-15 Nm.
• Plug the spark plug socket correctly on the plug.

Clean the air filter
Soiled air filters reduce the engine power by sup-plying too little air to the carburetor. Dust and pollen plug up the pores of the filter made of foamed plastic. Regular checks are therefore essential.

• Unclip the air filter cover and remove the sponge filter element.
• To avoid objects falling into the air tank, replace the air filter cover.
• Wash the filter element in warm soap water, rinse and allow drying naturally.

Important: Never clean the air filter with petrol or inflammable solvents.
In order not to shorten the service life of the engine, a damaged air filter must be replaced at once.
Warning!
Never run the engine without the air filter element installed.

FUEL FILTER
Inside the fuel tank there is a filter which prevents impurities from entering the engine. The filter should be replaced once a year by your Retailer.
