Troubleshooting
Running combustion engines in confined areas
CAN KILL IN MINUTES
. Engine exhaust
fumes contain carbon-monoxide
– a deadly gas that you cannot smell or see. NEVER run
a combustion engine in confined areas EVEN IF windows and doors are open. ONLY run
combustion engines OUTDOORS and away from doors, windows and vents. • Petrol / fuel
/ gasoline is extremely flammable
– keep clear of naked flames or other ignition sources. •
The product is NOT supplied with engine oil, although traces of oil from the manufacturing process may be
present. It is essential to add adequate engine oil of the correct type to the engine before use
– see
Checking and Changing Engine Oil
.
Failure to add engine oil will void the product warranty
.
• Do not
have the engine running during inspection and maintenance unless specifically required.
• The engine should
be cool enough to touch before performing maintenance activities. • Some maintenance activities may be
beyond the scope of some users. Do NOT attempt procedures that you are not comfortable with, or do not
have the necessary tools, experience or knowledge for
– take the unit to an authorised service centre or
qualified technician for servicing.
The following information may assist in identifying a problem and rectifying it.
Difficulty starting the engine.
Possible Fault
Action
Lack of fuel
Check that there is fuel in the tank.
• To further check if fuel is reaching the carburettor, remove the
carburettor drain plug and check if fuel drains.
Engine "OFF"
Ensure engine ON/OFF switch is in the "ON" position.
Carbon build-up on spark
plug
Spark plug faulty
Remove the spark plug, then reconnect the plug lead to it. Place fuel tap in the "OFF" position and
the engine ON/OFF switch in "ON" position. Touch the spark plug electrode to a part of the engine
crankcase, away from the spark plug hole, and attempt to start the engine
– a spark should be
visible across the electrodes as the engine is rotated. If no spark is visible, replace the spark plug.
Engine "flooded" with fuel
Place choke in the "RUN" position. Leave the ON/OFF switch in the "OFF" position. Pull the starter
cord several times to assist clearing excess fuel from engine before attempting to start engine.
Engine starts but runs erratically.
Possible Fault
Action
Spark plug wire loose
Ensure the spark plug wire is securely connected.
Choke ON
Move the choke lever to "OFF" position.
Blocked fuel line or stale fuel.
Clean the fuel line. Fill the tank with clean, fresh petrol.
Water or dirt in fuel system
Drain fuel tank and carburettor. Refill with fresh fuel.
Dirty air cleaner
