Fuel Filter Service
The fuel filter cannot
be cleaned
and must be replaced
once a
year or every 100 operating
hours; more often if run with old
gasoline.
1.
Remove all fuel from tank by running
engine until it stops
from lack of fuel.
2.
Remove c-clamp from fuel line and remove fuel line from
tank outlet. See Fig. 10-5.
Figure 10=5
3.
Pull out old fuel filter from tank outlet. Replace when dirty
or damaged.
4.
Grasp new fuel filter from shouldered end and insert it
completely to the shoulder into the tank outlet. See Fig.
10-5 inset.
5.
Replace fuel line and c-clamp.
CleanEngine
If the engine has been running, allow it to cool for at least half
an hour before cleaning. Periodically remove dirt build-up from
engine. Clean finger guard and around muffler. Clean with a
brush or compressed air.
IMPORTANT; Do not spray engine with water to clean because
water could contaminate fuel. Using a garden hose or pressure
washing equipment can also force water into the air cleaner or
muffler opening. Water in the air cleaner will soak the paper
element, and water that passesthrough the element or muffler
can enter the cylinder, causing damage.

WARNING:
Accumulation of debris around muffler
could cause a fire. Inspect and clean before every
use.
Storage
Engines stored between
30 and 90 days need to be treated
with
a gasoline
stabilizer
and engines
stored over 90 days need to be
drained
of fuel to prevent
deterioration
and gum from forming
in fuel system or on essential
carburetor
parts. If the gasoline
in
your engine
deteriorates
during
storage, you may need to have
the carburetor,
and other fuel system components,
serviced
or
replaced.

4.
Change oil. See Oil Change
section.
Remove spark plug and pour about
1/2 an ounce of engine
oil into cylinder.
Replace spark plug and crank slowly to
distribute
oil.
Clean debris from around engine,
under finger
guard, and
under, around and behind
muffler.
Touch up any damaged
paint, and coat other areas that may rust with a light film
of oil.
5.
Store in a clean, dry and well ventilated
area away from any
appliance
that operates
with a flame or pilot light, such
as a furnace, water heater, or clothes dryer. Also avoid any
area with a spark producing
electric
motor, or where power
tools are operated.
6.
If possible,
also avoid storage areas with high humidity,
because that promotes
rust and corrosion.
7.
Keep the engine level in storage. Tilting
can cause fuel or
oil leakage.

3.
Check your engine as described
in the Pre-Operation
Check section
of this manual.
If the fuel was drained
during
storage
preparation,
fill the
tank with fresh gasoline.
If you keep a container
of gasoline
for refueling,
make certain
it contains
only fresh fuel.
Gasoline
oxidizes and deteriorates
over time, causing hard
starting.
If the cylinder
was coated with oil during
storage
preparation,
the engine will smoke
briefly at startup.
This
is normal.
