over the air intake and air outlet.
Keep clean the area surrounding the air
intake and outlet screen.

effect of shortening the engine life. During the first 20
hours of operation, and to allow for a good engine run-in,
do not use more than 70% of the maximum power output
rated in the technical specifications.
After first 50 hours of operation change the engine oil.
