nearest Robin dealer.

the electrode?
1. Remove the spark plug and connect it
to the plug cap.
Turn key switch to START position
while grounding spark plug against

2. Try with a new spark plug if the spark
is weak or there is no spark.

no spark with a new spark plug.
Take your engine to your nearest
Robin dealer.
WARNING
Wipe off spilled fuel carefully
before checking the spark plug.
Place spark plug as far away from
spark plug hole as possible.
Do not hold spark plug by hand
