12.3) Maintenance Instructions
12.3.1) Engine cleaning
If necessary, clean the engine carefully. If leaks are noticed, they have to be
traced before cleaning. As a principle, clean engine only when cold. Use of
commercially available cold cleaning agent is recommended.
â– CAUTION: For cleaning of engine do not use highly inflammable
liquids or caustic cleaning agents.
Never clean an engine with a high pressure cleaner. This is detrimental for
the electrical installations and the oil seals. Oxidation of the various compo-
nents and failures are the consequence!
After each cleaning procedure blast all electrical components, like battery,
ignition unit, spark plug connector, clamp connections etc. with compressed
air, to prevent leaking current.
â– CAUTION: When cleaning the engine, the dissolved residues of fuel,
oil and other environment-contaminating agents are rinsed
off. Collect the cleaning water and dispose of it in an
environment-friendly way.
12.3.2) Visual check of engine
