Maintenance and care
Check spark plug
1. Check plug gap. Correct gap is 0.6 mm to 0.7 mm.
2. Inspect electrode for wear.
3. Inspect insulator for oil or other deposits.
4. If the spark plug is dirty, clean it. Do not sandblast to clean.
Remaining sand will damage engine.
5. If the electrodes or terminals are worn, or if there are cracks
in the ceramics, replace them with new parts. (see Specifi-
cationspage 26)
6. Tighten to 15 N·m - 17 N·m (150kgf·cm to 170 kgf·cm).
The spark test (for checking whether the spark plug is spark-
ing) must be carried out by your dealer.
Angle transmission
1. Remove the plug (A) and drain screw (B) from the angle
transmission (C).
2. Add grease into the transmission until old grease is pushed
out. If necessary, use a low pressure pump.
3. Reinstall the drain screw and plug.
