Maintenance Maintenance Schedule REGULAR SERVICE PERIOD(3) ITEM Perform at every indicated month or operating hour interval, whichever comes first.
Maintenance Engine Oil Change Spark Arrestor Cleaning 1. Change oil while engine is warm to assure complete and rapid draining. 2. The Water Pump should be on a level surface. 3. Remove oil filler cap. 4. Place pan under water pump to catch oil. 5. Remove oil drain plug. 6. Allow oil to drain completely. 7. Replace drain plug. 8. Refill with recommended oil (page 6). 9. Check oil level. 1. Engine must be cool and muffler safe to touch to remove the Spark Arrestor from the muffler. 2.
Maintenance Spark Plug Service Recommended Spark Plug: BPR6ES (NGK) W20EPR-U (DENSO) To insure proper engine operation, the spark plug must be properly gapped and free of deposits. WARNING If the engine has been running, the muffler will be very hot. Care must be taken not to touch the muffler when removing the spark plug. 1. Remove the spark plug cap. 2. Clean any dirt from around the spark plug base. 3. Use the wrench supplied with the water pump to remove the spark plug. 4.
Storage Note: Proper storage preparation is essential to keeping the pump trouble free. Following the steps below will keep the pump in good working order and easier to start when used next. Cleaning the Pump 1. Allow engine to cool at least a half hour before cleaning. 2. Wash the engine and pump. Note: It is best to wash the pump by hand (do not use a hose or power washer) in order to prevent water from getting into the air filter, muffler opening or other areas sensitive to water. 3.
Storage Internal Oiling Safety Features 1. Remove the spark plug. 2. Pour 1 tablespoon of clean engine oil into the cylinder. 3. Crank the engine several times by pulling on the starter rope. 4. Reinstall the spark plug. 5. Slowly pull the starter rope until resistance is felt. At this point the piston is coming up on its compression stroke and both the intake and exhaust valves are closed. Storing the engine in this position will help protect it from internal corrosion.
