MAINTENANCE
SPARK PLUG
This engine uses a Champion RCJ6Y or equivalent spark
plug with .025 in. electrode gap. Use an exact replacement
and replace annually, or more frequently if necessary.
CLEANING THE EXHAUST PORT AND
MUFFLER
Depending on the type of fuel used, the type and amount of
lubricant used, and/or your operating conditions, the exhaust
port and muffler may become blocked with carbon deposits.
If you notice a power loss with your gas powered tool, you
may need to remove these deposits to restore performance.
We highly recommended that only qualified service techni-
cians perform this service.
SPARK ARRESTOR
The spark arrestor must be cleaned or replaced every 25
hours or yearly to ensure proper performance of the product.
Spark arrestors may be in different locations depending on
the model purchased. Please contact the nearest service
dealer for the location of the spark arrestor for your model.
STORING THE TRIMMER (1 MONTH OR LONGER)
See Figure 11.
Drain all fuel from tank into a container approved for
gasoline. Run engine until it stops.
Clean all foreign material from the hedge trimmer. Store
it in a well-ventilated place that is inaccessible to chil-
dren. Keep away from corrosive agents such as garden
chemicals and de-icing salts.
Abide by all Federal and local regulations for the safe
storage and handling of gasoline.
Always place the scabbard on the cutting blades before
transporting or storing the unit.
