CAUTION
If you leave the spark-plug wire connected,
someone could accidently start the engine and
seriously injure you or other bystanders.
Before performing any maintenance, park the
machine on a level surface, stop the engine, and
disconnect the spark-plug wire. Set the wire aside
so that it does not accidentally contact the spark
plug.
Pull the spark-plug wire off the terminal of the spark plug
(Figure 20).
