MAINTENANCE
Oil Bath Type
The Honda GX160UT2QMXC engine is equipped with a
replaceable, high-density paper air cleaner element. See
(Figure 18) for air cleaner components.
1. Follow steps 1 through 3 as outlined in the "Dual
Element" section.
2. Next, remove the pan head screws (3) that secure the
cyclone housing to the pre-cleaner cap.
3. Remove the cyclone housing and wash the components
with water.
4. Thoroughly dry housing and associated components
and reassemble.

Figure 19. Spark Plug Gap
NOTICE
When reinstalling cyclone housing, be sure that the air
intake tab fits properly into the groove in the pre-cleaner
cap. Also make sure air guide is properly aligned before
inserting into pre-cleaner cap.
2. Adjust the spark gap to 0.028~0.031 inch (0.6~0.7 mm).
This unit has electronic ignition which requires no
adjustments.
CHANGING VIBRATOR OIL
1. When changing the vibrator oil, remove the drain plug.
2. Tip the compactor to drain the oil. Note that the oil will
drain more easily while it is hot.
3. Remember to use only 10W-30 motor oil when
replacing vibrator oil.
CHECKING/REPLACING THE V-BELT AND CLUTCH
After 200 hours of operation, remove the upper belt cover to
check the V-belt tension. Tension is proper if the belt bends
about 10 mm when depressed strongly with finger between
shafts. Loose or worn V-belts reduces power transmission
efficiency, causing weak compaction and reduces the life
of the belt itself.
CHECKING V-BELT
Visually examine the V-belt (Figure 20) and determine if it
is full of tiny cracks, frayed, has pieces of rubber missing,
is peeling or otherwise damaged.
Also, examine the belt and determine if it is
oil soaked
or
"
glazed
" (hard shiny appearance on the sides of the belt).
Either of these two conditions can cause the belt to run hot,
which can weaken it and increase the danger of it breaking.
If the V-belt exhibits any of the above wear conditions
replace the V-belt immediately.
