15. Inspecting and replacing the
fuse and fusible link
Remove the fuse box cover and inspect the
fuse. If the fuse has blown out, replace with the
one with the specified capacity.
Stop the engine and inspect the fusible link. The
fusible link is a type of fuse. If excessive current
flows to the wiring circuit (circuit to which the
power is usually flowing), the fusible link melts
and shuts off the current. If the fusible link has
melted, the outer sheathing (vinyl) is discolored.
In such a case, have your dealer inspect it.

17. Color of exhaust gas
When the engine is started, color of the exhaust
gas is blackish. It is usually colorless.
Black
Incomplete combustion due to too rich
fuel
White···· Engine oil is burning. However, when
the atmospheric temperature is low,
the color may look white because of
the vapor.
If the exhaust gas is black or white even while
no load is applied, have the dealer service the
machine.
