SERVICE

 

 

Maintenance

 

 

Periodic maintenance and adjustment are necessary to keep the engine in good operating condition. 

Perform the service and inspection scheduled in the following table.

 

 

 

Shut off the engine before performing any maintenance. If the engine must be run, make

 

 

sure the area is well ventilated. The exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas;

 

exposure can cause loss of consciousness and may lead to death.

 

 

 

Use only genuine Our company parts or their equivalent. The use of replacement parts

 

that are not of equivalent quality may damage the engine.
