Suction head in the fuel tank
The fuel filler (5) of the suction head is used to filler the fuel required by the
–
carburetor.
A periodical visual inspection of the fuel filter is to be conducted. For that purpose
–
open the tank cap, use a wire hook and pull out the suction head through the tank
opening. Filters found to have hardened, been polluted or clogged up are to be
replaced.
Insufficient fuel supply can result in the admissible maximum speed being
–
exceeded. It is therefore important to replace the fuel filter at least quarterly to
ensure satisfactory fuel supply to the carburetor.
Cleaning of muffler exhaust port
Check of muffler exhaust port (6) regularly.
