2. PERFORMANCE 2-1 MAXIMUM OUTPUT The maximum output is the output of an engine with its throttle valve fully opened under the condition that all the moving parts are properly broken in after the initial break-in period. A new engine may not produce full maximum output while its moving parts are still not broken-in.
3. FEATURES 3-1 THE SMALLEST AND LIGHTEST 4-STROKE ENGINE IN THE MARKET 1) Small-sized lubricant oil tank, thanks to the Robin original lubrication system. 2) Compact construction because of the optimum design, not taking any bore-up into consideration. 3) Shorter shaft length at the output side (magneto side), by arranging the cam gear unit at the opposite side of the magneto.

(a) Since Robin lubricating system makes use of the pressure fluctuations in the crankcase, a lead valve is arranged at the lower part of the crankcase. By utilizing the negative pressure that occurs during the piston rising stroke, lubricant oil is supplied from the oil tube (located inside the oil tank, that is separated from the crankcase) to the crankcase, through the oil passage of the crankshaft which has rotary valve that opens and shuts with an appropriate timing.

(b) When the engine is tilted muffler side down. In the same way as that of the carburetor side down, the return path in the rocker arm com- partment and the pressure relief hole operate and return the stagnant oil into the crankcase. (c) Engine tilted back and forth The breather hole located inside the rocker arm compartment is arranged approximately at the...
4. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF ENGINE COMPONENTS 4-1 CYLINDER BLOCK AND CRANKCASE The cylinder block and crankcase are aluminum die-castings split in upper and lower parts. The cylinder block and the cylinder head are a single piece. The valve seats are molded and the valve guides (intake valves and exhaust valves) and the valve stem seal (intake side only) are press fitted.
4-4 PISTON RINGS The piston rings are made of special cast iron. The top ring is a barrel face type, the second ring is a tapered one, and the oil ring consists of three pieces, so as to reduce the oil consumption. BARREL RING SECOND...
4-8 IGNITION SYSTEM The ignition system is a TIC flywheel magneto type. The ignition timing is 25 degrees before the top dead center. The magneto consists of the flywheel and the ig- nition coil. The flywheel (that works as a cooling fan as well) is mounted on the crankshaft and the ignition coil is mounted directly on the cylinder block.
4-11 DECOMPRESSION SYSTEM The decompression equipment is installed inside the gear of the cam-gear unit. The decompres- CAMLIFTER sion equipment opens the intake valve before the compression top to relieve the compression pres- sure for easy start. WEIGHT CRESCENT CAM Fig.

6. MAGNETO 6-1 FLYWHEEL MAGNETO The ignition system of the EH025 is the T.I.C. (Transistor, Igniter, Circuit) point less ignition system. 6-2 IGNITION OF MAGNETO When the engine does not start, has difficulty in starting or does not run correctly, carry out the following checks for magneto failure.
7. AUTOMATIC DECOMPRESSION SYSTEM 7-1 FUNCTIONS AND MECHANISM The decompression system is installed on the cam in order to open the intake valve and relieve the compression pressure at the first half of the engine compression cycle. The flyweight installed inside the cam gear has an appropriate shape (weight) to have the effect of the centrifugal force, and the end of the rotary shaft has a crescent cam shape.
8. CARBURETOR 8-1 OPERATION AND CONSTRUCTION 8-1-1 FUNCTIONS AND CONSTRUCTION OF THE DIAPHRAGM SYSTEM This engine is equipped with a diaphragm type carburetor. Since the fuel level is kept constant, irrespective of the tilting angle of the engine, it can be operated at any position.
Page 47
8-2-1 PRECAUTIONS (1) Wash the carburetor with clean gasoline before disassembly. (2) Disassemble and reassemble the carburetor by referring to the exploded view. (3) Refrain from disassembling the throttle valve assy. (6), pump body assy. (13) and the main body. 8-2-2 DISASSEMBLY AND REASSEMBLE PROCEDURES (1) Removes the screw (25) and the primer pump cover (24).

9. RECOIL STARTER 9-1 HOW TO DISASSEMBLE The recoil starter rarely have problem under normal use. When it fails, however, or when greasing, disassemble and reassemble it according to the following procedure. Tools : Screwdriver and pincers (pliers) (1) Remove the recoil starter from the engine. (2) Pull out the starter knob, hold the rotary reel with your thumb as shown in Figure 9-1 when the reel notch gets aligned with the starter rope...
Page 50
(3) Remove the parts as shown in Fig. 9-2. Remove the reel slowly while turning it back and forth gently, otherwise the spiral spring may escase from the case which may invite danger. (It the spiral spring escapes, put it in the case by following procedure shown in Fig.
9-2 HOW TO REASSEMBLE (1) Pass the starter rope through the starter knob and make an overhand knot as shown in Fig. 9-3. Pass the opposite side of the starter rope from the starter case to the reel, and make a knot in the same way, then put the rope end securely into the rope housing in the reel.
9-3 CHECK AFTER REASSEMBLE (1) Pull the starter knob a few times to check if: A. The starter knob is too heavy to pull, check that each part has been assembled as specified. B. The ratchet fails to function, check is parts such as friction spring have been missing. (2) Pull out the starter knob to extend the rope to its extreme to see if: A.
10. TROUBLESHOOTING The following three conditions must be fulfilled for satisfactory engine start. 1. The cylinder filled with a proper fuel-air mixture. 2. Good compression in the cylinder. 3. Good spark, properly timed, to ignite the mixture. The engine cannot be started unless these three conditions are met. There are also other factors which make engine start difficult, e.
(4) Incorrect Valve clearance If the correct compression is not obtained even after remedying the above, disassemble the engine and check further as follows : a) Valve stuck open due to carbon or gum on the valve stem. b) If the piston rings are stuck on the piston, remove the piston and connecting rod from the engine. Clean or replace the parts.
10-4 ENGINE OVERHEATS (1) Crankcase oil level low. Add oil immediately. (2) Spark timing incorrect. (3) Low grade gasoline is used, or engine is overloaded. (4) Cooling air circulation restricted. (5) Cooling air path misdirected causes loss of cooling efficiency. (6) Cylinder head cooling fins clogged up with dirt.
11. INSTALLATION Engine life, ease of maintenance and inspection, frequency of checks and repairs, and operating cost all depend on the way in which the engine is installed. Review the following instructions carefully for install- ing the engine. 11-1 INSTALLING When mounting the engine, carefully examine its position, the method of connecting it to a machine, the foundation, and the method of supporting the engine.
12-3 OIL GRADE CHART Use oil classified SF or higher. Multi-grade oil tends to increase its consumption at high ambient temperature. Comparison between oil viscosity and temparature Single grade Specified Lubricant Quality 10W-30 Multi- grade 10W-40 40 °C - 20 - 10 104 °F - 57 -...
13. MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE The following maintenance jobs apply when the engine is operated correctly under normal conditions. The indicated maintenance intervals are by no means guarantees for maintenance free operations dur- ing these intervals. For example, if the engine is operated in extremely dusty conditions, the air cleaner should be cleaned every day instead of every 50 hours.
13-4 EVERY 100-200 HRS. (MONTHLY) MAINTENANCE t l i f n i l t r i . f f 13-5 EVERY 500-600 HRS. MAINTENANCE s t i 13-6 EVERY 1000 HRS. (YEARLY) MAINTENANCE n i l 13-7 ENGINE STORAGE (1) Perform the above 13-1 and 13-2 maintenance jobs. (2) Drain fuel from the fuel tank and carburetor.
