proper idling. In such a case, reposition the control cable to ensure
proper valve movement.

Cleaning engine, cooling air inlet
Keep engine clean by wiping down with a cloth rag.
Keep the cylinder fins free of dust or dirt. Dust or dirt adhering to the
fins may cause engine overheat and piston seizure.
Blowing air is taken in from the air inlet vent. When airflow drops
down during operation, stop engine and inspect the air inlet vent for
any blockages. Clean it if necessary. Such a blockage may cause
overheat and damage the engine.

Replace gaskets and packings if the engine is disassembled.
Any maintenance of adjustment work that is not included and
described in this manual is only to be performed by Authorized
