NOTE: Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emission
control devices and system may be performed by any
non-road engine repair establishment, individual or
authorized service dealer.
In order to assure peak performance of your engine, inspection
of the engine exhaust port may be necessary after 50 hours of
operation. If you notice lost RPM, poor performance or general
lack of acceleration, this service may be required. If you feel
your engine is in need of this inspection, refer service to any
non-road engine repair establishment, individual or authorized
service dealer for repair. DO NOT attempt to perform this
process yourself as engine damage may result from
contaminants involved in the cleaning process for the port.
3. Pull old line out of the line
loading and line locking holes
(Fig. 22 and 23).
4. Insert a piece of trimming line
straight into one of the two
eyelets in the outer spool.
Push it up through the line
loading hole in the inner reel
(Fig. 21). Do not bend the line
when inserting it into the
eyelet.
5. Insert the line into the locking
hole (Fig. 22). Do not push
the line more than a 1/2 inch
(12.7 mm) into the line locking hole. The line will form a
small loop (Fig. 22) when it is inserted correctly.
6. Pull the line from the outer spool until the line is tight against
the inner reel (Fig. 23).
7. Repeat procedures 4-6 with the second piece of line.
8. Hold the outer spool. Wind the inner reel counterclockwise
until approximately four (4) inches (102 mm) of line remain
(Fig. 24).
