Inspecting the Throwing
Edges
Service Interval: Yearly—Inspect the throwing edges
and have an Authorized Service

for wear. When a throwing edge has worn down to
the wear-indicator hole, have an Authorized Service
Dealer replace the throwing edges

Changing the Engine Oil

Service Interval: After the first 2 hours

If possible, run the engine for a few minutes before
changing the oil because warm oil flows better and
carries more contaminants.
