lubrication and filled with fuel prior to operation. Refer to the
manufacturer’s engine manual for instructions and details
on operation and servicing.

2. Air Cleaner — Prevents dirt and other debris from
entering the fuel system. Unsnap the air filter cover to

or in cold weather conditions. The choke enriches the

the engine is running or immediately

system. Set the spark plug gap to 0.70–0.80 mm

dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear.
