MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
REPLACING THE SPARK PLUG
Use a Champion RDJ7Y spark plug (or equivalent). The correct air gap is 0.025 in. (0.635 mm). Remove
the plug after every 25 hours of operation to check its condition.
1. Stop the engine and allow it to cool. Grasp the plug wire firmly and pull the cap from the spark plug.
2. Clean dirt from around the spark plug. Remove the spark
plug from the cylinder head by turning a 5/8 in. socket
counterclockwise.
NOTE: Replace a cracked, fouled or dirty spark plug.
3. Set the air gap at 0.025 in. (0.635 mm) using a feeler gauge
(Fig. 19).
WARNING:
Do not sand blast, scrape or clean
electrodes. Grit in the engine could damage the
cylinder.
4. Install a correctly gapped spark plug in the cylinder head.
Tighten by turning the 5/8 in. socket clockwise until snug.
If using a torque wrench torque to: 110-120 in.•lb. (12.3-13.5 N•m) Do not over tighten.
CLEANING THE UNIT
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, always turn your unit off and allow it to
cool before you clean or service it.
• Use a small brush to clean off the outside of the unit and to keep the air vents free of obstructions.
• Do not use strong detergents or petroleum based cleaners, like kerosene. Some household cleaners
contain aromatic oils such as pine and lemon that can damage the plastic housings or handles. Wipe
off any moisture with a soft cloth.
STORAGE
• Never store a fueled unit where fumes may reach an open flame or spark.
• Allow the engine to cool before storing.
• Store the unit in a locked up area to prevent
unauthorized use or damage.
• Store the unit in a dry, well-ventilated area.
• Store the unit out of the reach of children.
LONG TERM STORAGE
If you plan to store the unit for an extended time:
1. Drain all fuel from the fuel tank into a container. Do not use fuel that has been stored for more than
60 days. Dispose of the old fuel in accordance to local regulations.
2. Start the engine and allow it to run until it stalls. This ensures
that all fuel has been drained from the carburetor.
3. Allow the engine to cool. Remove the spark plug and put 1
oz. (30 ml) of high quality motor oil into the cylinder. Pull the
starter rope slowly to distribute the oil. Reinstall the spark
plug.
NOTE: Remove the spark plug and drain all of the oil from the
cylinder before attempting to start the unit after storage.
4. Thoroughly clean the unit and inspect for any loose or
damaged parts. Repair or replace damaged parts and tighten
loose screws, nuts or bolts. The unit is ready for storage.
TRANSPORTING
• Allow the engine to cool before transporting.
• Secure the unit while transporting.
• Drain the fuel tank before transporting.
• Tighten fuel cap before transporting.
MOVING THE UNIT

2. Loosen the knobs on the handlebar.
3. Fold the handlebars down as shown (Fig. 20).
4. Either carry the unit by the shaft tube grip or grasp the center
of the handlebar to use it as a carrying handle (Fig. 21).
5. After the unit has been moved, reposition the handlebars and
