Cooling System

IMPORTANT: The engine that powers the Line
Painter 1200 is air–cooled. Operating the engine
with dirty or plugged cooling fins or a plugged or
dirty blower housing will result in engine overheat-
ing and damage.
1. Park machine on a level surface, stop engine, en-
gage parking brake and remove key from the ignition
switch. Remove high tension lead from the spark plug
and position the lead away from the spark plug.
IMPORTANT: Never clean engine with pressurized
water. Water could enter and contaminate the fuel
system.
2. Remove rewind starter and clean rotating screen
(Fig.2).
3. If necessary, remove engine cover, rotating screen
and blower housing from engine (Fig. 3). Clean blower
housing and engine cooling fins of dirt and debris.
IMPORTANT: Never operate engine without the
blower housing installed. Overheating and engine
damage will result.
4. Make sure blower housing, rotating screen and en-
gine cover are reinstalled to the engine if removed.
5. Attach high tension lead to the spark plug.
