MAINTENANCE
Replacing the fuel filter
Replace the pipe fitted fuel filter every 100 running
hours (once per season) or more frequently if it is
clogged.
Replace the filter as follows:
1. Fold open the engine cover.
2. Move the hose clips away from the filter. Use a
pair of flat pliers.
3. Pull off the filter from the hose ends.
4. Press in the new filter on the hose ends. If
necessary soap solution can be applied on the
filter ends to simplify fitting.
5. Push the hose clips back on the filter.

Checking and adjustment of the throttle
wire
Check that the engine responds to the throttle
control and that the correct engine speed is
achieved at full throttle.
If in doubt, contact the service workshop.
If adjustment is necessary, adjust the lower wire as
follows:
1. Release the clamping screw that secures the
wire casing and set the throttle control to full
throttle.
2. Check that the throttle wire is attached to the
correct hole in the lower lever, see diagram.
3. Pull the throttle wire casing to the far left and
tighten the clamping screw.
Checking and adjusting the choke wire
If the engine is producing black smoke or is difficult
to start then the choke wire (upper wire) may be
incorrectly adjusted.
If in doubt contact your service workshop.
If it is necessary to adjust the choke, proceed as follows:
1. Release the clamping screw that secures the
wire casing and set the choke control to maxi-
mum choke.
2. Check that the throttle wire is attached to the
upper lever, see diagram.
