Important Refer to your engine operator's manual for additional maintenance procedures.
If you leave the wire on the spark plug, someone could accidently start the engine and seriously
injure you or other bystanders.
Disconnect the wire from the spark plug before you do any maintenance. Set the wire aside so
that it does not accidently contact the spark plug.

seconds of releasing the bail; if it does not, contact an Authorized Service Dealer
