MAINTENANCE

To maintain proper engine operating temperatures, cooling air must 
pass freely through the cylinder fin area. This flow of air carries 
combustion heat away from the engine.

Overheating and engine seizure 
can occur when:

• Air intakes are blocked, 

preventing cooling air from 
reaching the cylinder.

• Dust and grass build up on the 

outside of the cylinder. This build 
up insulates the engine and 
prevents the heat from leaving.

Removal of cooling passage 
blockages or cleaning of cooling 
fins is considered “Normal 
Maintenance.” Any failure 
attributed to lack of maintenance is 
not warranted.

1.

Remove spark plug lead.

2.

Remove air cleaner cover (A).

3.

Remove engine cover (B).

DO NOT use a metal scraper to remove dirt from the cylinder fins.
