MUFFLER
Do not operate tillerwithout muffler. Do
not tamper with exhaust system. Dam-
aged mufflers or spark arresters could
create a fire hazard. Inspect periodically
and replace if necessary. If your engine is
equipped with a spark arrsster screen
assembly, remove every 50 hours for
cleaning and inspection. Replace if
damaged.
SPARK PLUG
Replace spark plugs at the beginning of
each tilling season or after every 50 hours
of use, whichever comes first. Spark plug
type and gap setting are shown in
"PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS".
TRANSMISSION
Once a season, lubricate the right hand
gear case grease fitting with 1 oz. of EP
#1 grease.
CLEANING
• Clean engine, wheels, finish, etc. of all
foreign matter.
• Keep finished surfaces and wheels free
of all gasoline, oil, etc.
• Protect painted surfaces with automo-
tive type wax.
We do not recommend using a garden
hose to clean your unit unless the muffler,
air filter and carburetor are covered to
keep water out. Water in engine can
result in a shortened engine life.
ACAUTION: Disconnect spark plug wire
from spark plug and place wire where it
cannot come into contact with plug.
