To ensure proper cooling, make sure the grass screen,
cooling fan fins, and other external surfaces of the
engine are kept clean at all times.
Annually or every 100 hours of operation (more oen
under extremely dusty or dirty conditions), remove
the blower housing and other cooling shrouds. Clean
the cooling fins and external surfaces as necessary.
Make sure the cooling shrouds are reinstalled.
NOTE: Operating the engine with a blocked grass
screen, dirty or plugged cooling fins, and/or
cooling shrouds removed, will cause engine
damage due to overheating.
