FEATURES

FI (fuel injection) System
The FI System system uses fuel injection. It has three
subsystems:
Air Intake, Engine Control, and Fuel Control. The ECU (engine
control unit) uses various sensors to determine how much air is
going into the engine. It then controls how much fuel to inject
under all operating conditions.
If the indicator blinks (red) only once, the electrical system may
have problem on its voltage, please check the voltage of the
battery.
If there is no problem on the voltage or if the indicator blinks (red)
twice or more, you may have a serious problem with the FI
system. Take engine to your servicing dealer.

BEFORE OPERATION CHECKS

IS YOUR ENGINE READY TO GO?

For your safety, and to maximize the service life of your
equipment, it is very important to take a few moments before
you operate the engine to check its condition. Be sure to take
care of any problem you find, or have your servicing dealer
correct it, before you operate the engine.
Failure to properly maintain this engine, or failing to
correct a problem before operation, could result in a
significant malfunction.
Some malfunctions can cause serious injuries or
death.
Always perform a pre-operation inspection before
each operation and correct any problems.
Before beginning your pre-operation checks, be sure the engine is
level and the engine switch is in the OFF position.
Always check the following items before you start the engine:
Check the General Condition of the Engine
1. Before each use, look around and underneath the engine for
signs of oil or gasoline leaks.
2. Remove any excessive dirt or debris, especially around the
muffler.
3. Remove any objects or debris that may block the cooling air
intake at the screen grid cover. Running the engine with a
blocked air intake can cause engine damage.
4. Look for signs of damage.
5. Check that all shields and covers are in place, and all nuts,
bolts, and screws are tightened.
Check the Engine
1. Check the fuel level. Starting with a full tank will help to
eliminate or reduce operating interruptions for refueling.
2. Check the engine oil level (see page 7). Running the engine
with a low oil level can cause engine damage.
3. Check the air filter element (see page 8). A dirty air filter
element will restrict air flow to the FI system, reducing engine
performance.
4. Check the equipment powered by this engine.
Review the instructions provided with the equipment powered
by this engine for any precautions and procedures that should
be followed before engine startup.
