MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
ROCKER ARM CLEARANCE
7. Slide the feeler gauge between the rocker arm and the valve return spring. Measure the clearance
between the valve stem and rocker arm (Fig. 46). Measure both the intake and exhaust valves.
The recommended clearance for both intake and exhaust is .003 – .006 in.
(.076 – 0.152 mm). Use a standard automotive .005 in. (0.127 mm) feeler
gauge. The feeler gauge should slide between the rocker arm and valve
stem with a slight amount of resistance, without binding. See Figures 46
and 47.
8. If the clearance is not within specification:
a. Turn the adjusting nut using a 5/16 inch (8 mm) wrench or nut driver
(Fig. 46).
• To increase clearance, turn the adjusting nut counterclockwise.
• To decrease clearance, turn the adjusting nut clockwise.
b. Recheck both clearances and adjust as necessary.
9. Reinstall the rocker arm cover using a new gasket. Torque the screw to
20–30 in•lb (2.2–3.4 N•m).
10. Check the spark plug and reinstall. See Replacing the Spark Plug.
11. Replace the spark plug wire.
12. Reinstall the engine cover. Check alignment of the cover before
tightening the screws. Tighten screws.
REPLACING THE SPARK PLUG
Use a replacement part number 753-05784 or Champion
mm).
1. Stop the engine and allow it to cool. Remove the six (6) screws on the back of the engine cover with a Flat-head or
T-25 Torx screwdriver (Fig. 44).
2. Grasp the plug wire firmly and pull the cap from the spark plug.
3. Clean dirt from around the spark plug. Remove the spark plug from the cylinder
head by turning a 5/8 in. socket counterclockwise.
WARNING:
Do not sand blast, scrape or clean electrodes.
Grit in the engine could damage the cylinder.
4. Replace cracked, fouled or dirty spark plug. Set the air gap at 0.025 in. (0.635 mm.)
using a feeler gauge (Fig. 48).
5. Install a correctly-gapped spark plug in the cylinder head. Turn the 5/8 in. socket
clockwise until snug.
If using a torque wrench torque to: 110-120 in.•lb. (12.3-13.5 N•m) Do not over tighten.
tighten loose screws, nuts or bolts. The unit is ready for storage.
CLEANING AND STORAGE
CLEANING
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, always turn the unit off and allow it to cool
before cleaning or servicing it.
Use a small brush to clean off the outside of the unit. Do not use strong detergents. Household cleaners
that contain aromatic oils such as pine and lemon, and solvents such as kerosene, can damage plastic
housing or handle. Wipe off any moisture with a soft cloth.
STORAGE
• Never store the unit with fuel in the tank where fumes may reach an open flame or spark.
• Allow the engine to cool before storing.
• Lock up the unit to prevent unauthorized use or damage.
• Store the unit in a dry, well-ventilated area.
• Store the unit out of the reach of children.
Short Term Storage (1-2 weeks)
1. Store the unit in a horizontal position. If this is not possible, store the unit vertically with the engine at
the top.
Long Term Storage
1. Drain all gasoline from the gas tank into a container. Do not use gas that has been stored for more
than 30 days. Dispose of the old gasoline in accordance with federal, state and local regulations.
2. Start the engine and allow it to run until it stalls. This ensures that all gasoline has been drained from
the carburetor.
3. Allow the engine to cool. Remove the spark plug and put 5 drops of high quality motor oil into the
cylinder. Pull the starter rope slowly to distribute the oil. Reinstall the spark plug.
NOTE: Remove the spark plug and drain all of the oil from the cylinder before attempting to start the
trimmer after storage.
4. Change the oil, referring to Changing the Oil. Dispose of the old oil in accordance with federal, state
and local regulations.
5. Thoroughly clean the unit and inspect for any loose or damaged parts. Repair or replace damaged
parts and tighten loose screws, nuts or bolts. The unit is ready for storage.
