INSPECTION Inspect the entire

blower and tubes for damage, includ-

ing loose or missing components, and

repair as necessary.

(more frequently if reduced performance

is noted)

Inspect the filter element for signs of

contamination from debris. A contami-

nated fuel filter should be replaced with

a new Shindaiwa replacement element.

Before reinstalling the filter, inspect the

condition of the fuel line. If you note

damage or deterioration, the blower

should be removed from service until

it can be inspected by a Shindaiwa-

trained service technician.
COOLING SYSTEM Use a wood or

plastic scraper and a soft brush to

remove dirt and debris from the cylin-

der fins and crankcase.

CAUTION!
Never allow dirt or debris to enter
the cylinder bore! Before removing
the spark plug, thoroughly clean the
spark plug and cylinder head area!

Allow the engine to cool before serv-
icing the spark plug! Cylinder threads
can be damaged by tightening or
loosening the spark plug while the
engine is hot!

CAUTION!
Make sure you do not pierce the fuel
line with the end of the hooked wire.
The line is delicate and can be dam-
aged easily.

extract the fuel filter from inside the

fuel tank.
