PREPARATION FOR REMOVAL AND
DISASSEMBLY
1. Remove all dirt, mud, dust, and foreign
material before removal and disassem-
bly.
When washing the machine with high
pressured water, cover the parts as fol-
lows.

Silencer end
l
Air filter intake hole
l
Carburetor accelerator pump
2. Use proper tools and cleaning equip-
ment. Refer to “SPECIAL TOOLS” sec-
tion.
3. When disassembling the machine, keep
mated parts together. They include
gears, cylinders, pistons, and other
mated parts that have been “mated”
through normal wear. Mated parts must
be reused as an assembly or replaced.
4. During the machine disassembly, clean
all parts and place them in trays in the
order of disassembly. This will speed up
assembly time and help assure that all
parts are correctly reinstalled.
5. Keep away from fire.
