Checking the air filter (fig. 19 -20)
This should be done more frequently in dusty conditions.
1. Accumulated dust in the air filter will reduce engine efficiency, increase fuel consumption and allow abrasive particles to pass into the engine. Remove the
air filter as often as necessary to maintain in
a clean condition.
2. Light surface dust can readily be removed by tapping the filter.
3. Heavy deposits should be washed out with a suitable solvent.
4. Remove the filter cover by pressing the part of the inside cover shown as Fig.20.
Checking the spark plug
1. Use the spark plug wrench to remove the spark plug (turn counter-clockwise to remove) (Fig.15).
2. Clean and adjust the spark plug gap to
0.6˜0.7mm. Replace any damaged or visibly warn spark plug.
3. Install the spark plug finger-tight in the cylinder head,and then tighten it firmly with the spark plug wrench.
Warning: Never allow dirt or debris to enter the cylinder bore. Before removing the spark plug thoroughly clean the spark plug and cylinder head area. Allow
the engine to cool before servicing the spark plug. Incorrect spark plug installation can result in serious engine damage.
Checking the fuel filter (Fig.21)
1. The fuel tank is fitted with a filter. The filter is situated at the free end of the fuel pipe and can be picked out. (Fig.21).
2. Check the fuel filter periodically. Do not allow dust to enter the fuel tank. A clogged filter will cause difficulty in starting the engine or abnormalities in engine
performance.
3. When the filter is dirty, replace the filter.
4. When the inside of the fuel tank is dirty, it can be cleaned by rinsing the tank out with petrol.

2. Pour approximately 7g of oil into the cylinder through the spark plug hole.
3. Before reinstalling the spark plug, pull the recoil starter 2 or 3 times to distribute the oil over the cylinder walls.
