Checking the Spark Plug
1. Look at the center of the spark plug(s) (Fig. 29).
If you see light brown or gray on the insulator,
the engine is operating properly. A black coating
on the insulator usually means the air cleaner is
dirty.
IMPORTANT: Never clean the spark plug(s).
Always replace the spark plug(s) when it has:
a black coating, worn electrodes, an oily film,
or cracks.
2. Check the gap between the center and side
electrodes (Fig. 29). Bend the side electrode
(Fig. 29) if the gap is not correct.

3. Push the wire(s) onto the spark plug(s) (Fig. 28).
Cutting Blades
To ensure a superior quality of cut, keep the blades
sharp. For convenient sharpening and replacement,
you may want to keep extra blades on hand.
