NOTE
If the fi lter is hard due to dust and dirt, replace it.
Cleaning the cylinder fi ns (Fig. 20)
When leaves get caught between cylinder fi ns (16),
the engine may overheat, resulting in lower output.
To avoid this, always keep cylinder fi ns and fan case
clean.
Every 100 operating hours, or once a year (more
often if conditions require), clean fi ns and external
surfaces of engine of dust, dirt and oil deposits which
can contribute to improper cooling.

For long-term storage
Drain all fuel from the fuel tank. Start and let engine
run until it stops. Repair any damage which has
resulted from use. Clean the unit with a clean rag,
or high pressure air hose. Put a few drops of two-
cycle engine oil into the cylinder through the spark
plug hole, and spin the engine over several times
to distribute oil. Cover the unit and store it in a dry
area.
