At the time this manual was written, a Briggs and Stratton engine was the only engine option for the RT 75 tiller.
If a different brand of engine is used, the removal/replacement procedures will be essentially the same.
Engine removal
To remove/replace the engine:
1. Disconnect and ground the spark plug wire.
2. Remove the two screws that secure the belt cover.
See Figure 4.1.
3. Swing the belt cover up and off of the tiller.
4. Set the throttle to the full throttle position.
5. Remove the throttle cable clamp using a flat headed
screwdriver. See Figure 4.2.
6. Disconnect the throttle cable from the throttle lever.
