Maintenance
IMPORTANT!
Maintenance, replacement or repair of
emission control devices and systems
may be performed by any repair estab-
lishment or individual, However, warranty
repairs must be performed by a dealer or
service center authorized by Shindaiwa
Corporation. The use of parts that are not
equiv-alent in performance and durability
to authorized parts may impair the ef-
fectiveness of the emission control system
and may have a bearing on the outcome
of a warranty claim.

WARNING!
Before performing any maintenance,
repair or cleaning work on the unit,
make sure the engine is completely
stopped. Disconnect the spark plug
wire before performing service or
maintenance work.
CAUTION!
The engine is cooled by air drawn into
the air intake cover on the blower
housing. The blower fan then pushes
the cooling air through an opening
in the fan housing, forcing it past the
cylinder cooling fins. Failure to keep
the cooling system and its passages
clear of debris will likely result in engine
overheating, a major cause of seri-
ous engine problems that can lead to
failure.
