Your REDMAX Precision
Tiller/Cultivator comes partially
assembled. You must install only the
handlebars, the carrying handle, and
the tines. This will take just a few
minutes if you follow the directions.
First, take all items out of the
carton. But do not remove the
cardboard from around the
Tiller/Cultivator’s base.
The list below, shows the parts that
come with your Tiller/Cultivator.
Check to make sure you have them.
The bag of hardware is packed in the
plastic bag containing the owner’s
manual.
To assemble your REDMAX
Tiller/Cultivator, you’ll need two 7/16"
wrenches or two adjustable wrenches.
We suggest that you install all nuts and
bolts only “finger tight” — that is, onehalf to one full turn — until you’ve
completed assembly. The nuts are self
locking, but you must use a wrench
to tighten them completely.

II. How to Assemble Lower Handles
To identify part numbers, see page 8.
1. Use the protective cardboard sleeve to stabilize your
Tiller/Cultivator. Stand the engine assembly up.
2. Lay the handle parts within easy reach. You’ll need the transmission
bracket (#47) and one of the lower handles (#6). Note that the lower
handles have a short leg on one end. (Picture 1)
3. Fit the transmission bracket along the outside of the short leg. Line
up the holes on the clamp and the leg.
4. Using one of the two 3 1/4" bolts (#54), slide it through the hole of
the transmission bracket (#47) and lower handle (#6) closest to the
elbow. (Picture 2) The fit will be tight.
5. Now slide the bolt completely through the second lower handle and
transmission bracket. (Picture 2) Add a nut (#53) and tighten finger
tight.
6. Locate the worm-gear housing. It starts just above — and extends
down through — the Tiller/Cultivator’s red fender. You’ll notice that
there’s a recessed channel on either side of the housing’s top.
7. Take the lower handles that you’ve just put together. Slide them into
the two recessed channels.
Make sure you insert them from the rear of the Tiller/Cultivator
(gasoline tank faces away from the operator) . . . so that the bolt fits
along the back of the housing.
8. Slide the second 3 1/4" bolt through the second hole in the short
legs. Add a nut (#53) and tighten finger tight. (Picture 4)
NOTE: THE NUTS ARE SELF
LOCKING, BUT YOU MUST
USE A WRENCH TO TIGHTEN
THEM COMPLETELY.

Assembling the Tines for Tilling
1. Remove the cardboard from around your Tiller/Cultivator’s base.
2. Slide the tines onto the axle shafts. The “D” hole goes on the outside.
3. Make sure you’ve installed the tines properly for cultivating. Liken
the tines to your fingers. When your palm faces the ground, your
fingers curl down. Stand behind the Tiller/Cultivator and hold your
hand next to the tines. Do the tine blades curl down, as your fingers
do? If so, they are in the tilling position. (To switch to the cultivating
position, see page 16.)
4. To secure each tine to the axle,
insert a tine retaining pin.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Before you use your REDMAX
Tiller/Cultivator, read the Safety
Rules & Warnings on pages 4-7.

How to Assemble Upper Handles and Plastic Carrying Handle
1. Lightly squeeze the lower handles (#3) toward one another so that they line
up with the two smaller holes on the carrying handle (#29). Then slide the
carrying handle over and down the lower handles. It will rest about four to
six inches above the engine. (Picture 1)
2. Gently pull the lower handles out to their original position.
3. Attach the upper handle assembly (#1) – the handle with the throttle cable
and ground wire – onto the right handle, and secure with the handle knob
(#40) and 1 round head bolt (#39) (Picture 2). Be sure you have proper
throttle movements and that the throttle cable is not wrapped or twisted
around the handle bar. Squeeze trigger and let go. The triangle must click
in both directions. If there is any doubt, remove air filter and visually check
that the throttle triangle hits both the idle screw and the full open stop. THIS
MUST BE DONE BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE.
4. Follow the same steps to install the left upper handle onto the other lower
handle. (Picture 3)
5. Use the clip (#6) to secure the throttle cable and wire in place on the lower
handle. (Picture 4)
6. Now install the Handle Brace. Line it up with the holes on the upper handles.
Then insert a Cap Screw (#34) and a Lock Nut (#35) on either side (Picture 5)
7. Use a wrench to tighten Cap Screws and Lock Nuts.
8. Now use wrench to tighten all nuts and bolts firmly and securely.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Make sure you have installed the handles properly. When you stand behind
your Tiller/Cultivator, holding the handles, gasoline tank should be in front of
the unit.

Your REDMAX Tiller/Cultivator is powered by a
commercial two stroke, air cooled engine which
requires a fuel mixture of gasoline and lubricating oil.
Use a mixture of 50 parts unleaded regular gasoline
and 1 part two-stroke oil (50:1.) Make sure to use
gasoline with a minimum octane number of 90 ROZ
(USA/Canada: pump octant Min. 87)
The REDMAX engines are lubricated by oil specially
formulated for air-cooled 2-cycle gasoline engine use.
If REDMAX oil is not available, use an anti-oxidant
added quality oil expressly labeled for air-cooled 2
cycle-engine use. (JASO FC GRADE OIL or ISO
EGC GRADE)
Recommended mixing ratio
Gasoline 50: Oil 1
Exhaust emission are controlled by the fundamental
engine parameters and components (eq., carburators,
ignition timing and port timing) without addition of
any major hardware or the introduction of an inert
material during combustion.
How to mix fuel:
1. Pour 1/2 of the gasoline into a safe container. Do
not mix the fuel and oil in the engine fuel tank.
2. Add 2.6 ounces (.077 liters) of two-cycle engine
oil to the gasoline and mix. Then add the rest of
the gasoline.
3. Screw the cap onto the gasoline can. Then swirl
the can to blend the oil and gas.
Fueling the unit:
1. Carefully pour the fuel mix into the `
Tiller/Cultivator’s fuel tank.
2. Put fuel into the fuel tank to 80% of the
full capacity.
3. Fasten the fuel cap securely and wipe up any fuel
spillage around the unit.
IMPORTANT: Two stroke fuel separates and ages.
Do not mix more than you will use in a month. Using
old fuel can cause difficult starting or engine damage.
Shake fuel container to thoroughly mix fuel before
each use. Do not attempt to run your engine on
gasoline only, use proper fuel mixture.
Need pre-measured engine oil? Contact your local
authorized REDMAX dealer.
Remember …
• Always mix two-cycle oil with gasoline before
fueling your Tiller/Cultivator. Never, ever run your
Tiller/Cultivator on gasoline alone. This will ruin
your engine and void all warranties.
• Always use a clean gas can and always use
unleaded gas.
• Never try to mix the oil and gasoline in the engine
fuel tank.
• Always mix oil and gas in the proper proportions:
2.6 ounces (.077 liters) of two-cycle engine oil to
one gallon (3.785 liters) of unleaded gasoline.
• Gasohol - It can cause deterioration of rubber
and/or plastic parts and disruption of
engine lubrication.
• Oil for 4-cycle engine use or water coded 2-cycle
engine use - it can cause spark plug fouling,
exhaust port blocking, or piston ring sticking.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Do Not use old or stale oil/gasoline mixture.
Always use the proper oil/gasoline mixture. If you
do not, your engine will suffer rapid, permanent
damage. And you will void the engine warranty.

Starting Your Tiller/Cultivator for the First Time
1. Fill the fuel tank with the proper oil/gasoline mixture.
(See previous section.)
2. Hand tighten the gasoline cap just until it’s snug.
3. Place the o/I switch into the I “start/on” position. (Picture 1)
4. Pull the choke button all the way out, to completely close the choke.
(Picture 2)
5. Locate the purge bulb on the upper right of the engine, in front of the
fuel tank. (See Picture 3) It sends fuel into the carburetor, for easy
starting. Press the purge bulb until you see fuel flow through the clear
fuel return line. Since you’re starting “cold,” you may need to press six
to eight times. As soon as fuel starts flowing through the clear fuel line,
stop pressing! (Picture 3)
6. Don’t press the throttle trigger during the starting of the engine.
7. Pull the starter cord (Picture 4) until resistance is felt. Then give the
recoil starter cord a few
brisk pulls until the engine fires. Note: Pull the
starter cord about 12" to 18".
During cold starting, you may need to pull
at least three or four times before the engine fires.
NOTE: When the choke is closed, never pull the cord more than four or
five times. Overpulling may cause flooding. Also, bear in mind that,
when the engine fires, it only coughs or sputters, and will not run on
choke.
8. Push the choke button in, all the way, to open the choke. (Picture 5)
9. Then pull the starter cord again. The engine should start and run. Let
the engine warm up two to three minutes before using.
Follow these steps whenever you are starting the engine “cold”, or
when the engine has run dry and you have just added fuel. Remember,
always use short, brisk pulls. Don’t give the cord a long, forceful yank.
And, do not let the cord snap back into the starter housing.

4. Pull starter rope using short pulls, 1/2 to 2/3 of the
rope length.
5. If engine fails to start in 4 pulls, use “First Time”
starting procedure on page 14.
6. With engine running, and both hands on the
handles, squeeze throttle trigger gradually to
increase the engine speed and engage the tines.
Additional Information
How to Stop the Engine
Simply push the o/
I switch into the I “stop”
position. This will stop the engine instantly. If it
should ever fail to do so, just pull out the choke
button. The engine will stop at once.
About the Choke
The choke controls the amount of air drawn into the
engine. Your Tiller/Cultivator will run only if the
choke is open — that is, if the choke is pushed in.
A Special Feature (with the idle set properly and
the engine running)
Even when the engine is running, the tines won’t
turn unless you press the throttle lever on the
handlebars. And, when you release the throttle lever,
the tines will stop.
A Tip for Extending Your Engine’s Life
After you start the engine, let your Tiller/Cultivator
warm up for two to three minutes before you use it.
Then, before you put your Tiller/Cultivator away, let
it idle for a minute to give the engine a chance to
cool down.
WARNING DANGER
AVOID ACCIDENTAL BLADE ENGAGEMENT.
DO NOT SQUEEZE THE THROTTLE TRIGGER WHEN
STARTING. MAINTAIN PROPER IDLE
SPEED ADJUSTMENT (220 - 2300 RPM).
WARNING DANGER
IF ENGINE DOES NOT STOP WHEN SWITCH IS
PUT IN THE STOP POSITION, RELEASE THE
THROTTLE. ALLOW ENGINE TO IDLE.
PUT THE TILLER/CULTIVATOR DOWN, AND
PULL THE CHOKE BUTTON OUT TO COLD
START (CLOSED) POSITION.
CHECK AND RETURN IGNITION SWITCH TO ON
POSITION BEFORE STARTING ENGINE AGAIN.
What to do Just in Case
If you follow the normal starting procedure, you
should have no problem starting your
Tiller/Cultivator. But, just in case you do have
problems, here’s what to do.
Make sure the start/stop switch is on “start.” You’d be
surprised how many people forget to push the switch
into the “start” position.
If the switch was on “stop” when you pulled the cord,
you may have flooded the engine.
• First, examine the spark plug. Use a 3/4" (19 mm)
inch spark plug wrench.
• Remove the cap over the spark plug. (Picture 1)
IMPORTANT NOTE:
To avoid possible damage to the threads, do not try
to remove the plug from a hot aluminum cylinder
head.
• Unscrew the spark plug. (Picture 2)
Starting a Flooded Engine
1. If the end of the spark plug is wet, the engine may
be flooded. Make sure the switch is in the stop
position, disconnect spark plug wire and
remove plug. Use a paper towel or a clean rag
to dry the spark plug, then, with the spark
plug out of the engine, pull the starter cord
several times. Shake the fuel out of the inside of
the plug and air dry. Next, replace the spark
plug. Use the wrench to tighten it and replace the
cap. Next, put the switch in the start position and
pull the choke button out. Pull the starter cord
three or four times until the engine coughs or
sputters. Open the choke (push the choke button
in) and pull the cord a few times. The engine
should start and run.
2. If the end of the spark plug is dry, check to see if
the fuel line is blocked. The fuel line runs from
the fuel tank to the carburetor. Pull it off at the
carburetor end. Fuel should drip slowly from the
line. Wipe off any excess or spilled fuel.
If fuel does not drip from the line, check the line
for any bends or pinches. (Picture 3) Kinks in the
line restrict the flow of fuel to the engine. Just
straighten out the line. Reconnect. Then follow
the normal starting procedure.
If fuel drips too freely, the line may be
disconnected from the fuel filter. You’ll find the
fuel filter inside the fuel tank. Just re-attach the
line to the filter, and put the filter back in the tank.
Then follow the normal starting procedure.
WARNING DANGER
MAKE SURE THE START/STOP SWITCH IS
IN THE STOP POSITION.
KEEP PLUG WIRE AWAY FROM ENGINE TO
AVOID UNINTENTIONAL SPARK.

Here’s Another Way to Start your REDMAX
Tiller/Cultivator
If you follow the steps above and your engine still
won’t start, try this:
1. Push the switch to “start.”
2. Move the choke lever to open the choke.
3. Press the plastic bubble a few times.
4. Give the starter cord a few short, quick pulls. The
engine should start and run.
5. If the engine does not start, then move the choke
lever to close the choke. Pull the starter cord four
to five times. The engine should sputter or cough.
6. After the engine sputters, push the choke button in.
Then pull the starter cord. The engine should start
and run.
7. If the engine still does not start, repeat steps 2
through 6.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Never use starting fluids. Starting fluids will cause
permanent engine damage. Using them will void
the warranty.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Before you use your REDMAX Tiller/Cultivator,
read the Safety Rules & Warnings on pages 4-7.
Tilling
Now You’re ready to Use Your REDMAX
Tiller/Cultivator.
If you’ve seen other Tiller/Cultivators, your REDMAX
Tiller/Cultivator may surprise you. It tills best when you
pull it backward! You see, when you pull your
REDMAX Tiller/Cultivator backward, you give extra
resistance to the tines, so they dig deeper.
What’s more when you go backward, you erase your
footprints, So your soil stays light and fluffy. With other
Tiller/Cultivators, by contrast, you walk right over the
soil you’ve just cultivated, packing it down, so it’s less
plantable.
Run Your REDMAX Tiller/Cultivator like a Vacuum
Cleaner.
Place your Tiller/Cultivator at the head of the row or
area you want to cultivate. Start it up. Then use an easy
rocking motion. First, pull your Tiller/Cultivator
backward. Then use an easy rocking motion. Again, pull
your Tiller/Cultivator backward. Then, let it move
forward just a little bit. Then pull it backward again.
This will help you cultivate deeper.
Keep repeating these steps until you’ve tilled an entire
row. Start again on the next row. It’s much like running a
vacuum cleaner! (Picture 2)
You Can Even Control Depth.
For Deeper Cultivating:
Move your Tiller/Cultivator slowly back and forth, as
you would a vacuum cleaner. Work the same area over
and over until you’ve dug to your desired depth.
For Shallow Cultivating:
Switch the tines to the cultivating position. (See page 16
to learn how.) Then move your Tiller/Cultivator quickly
over your soil surface.
For Big Weeds or Tough Roots:
Let your Tiller/Cultivator rock back and forth over the
tough spot, until the tines slice through the weed or root.
WARNING DANGER
THE OPERATOR OF THIS TILLER/CULTIVATOR IS
RESPONSIBLE FOR ACCIDENTS OR HAZARDS
OCCURRING TO HIMSELF, OTHER PEOPLE,
OR THEIR PROPERTY.
Cultivating
How to Switch From Tilling to Cultivating Position
1. Make sure your Tiller/Cultivator is off.
2. Remove the retaining pins from the tines.
3. Remove the tines from the axle.
4. Place the right-side tine onto the left-side axle. Place the left side
tine onto the right-side axle. The “D” hole should be to the outside.
5. Here is how to make sure you’ve installed the tines properly. Stand
behind the Tiller/Cultivator and hold your hand, palm up, next to the
tines. Do the tine points curl up, as your fingers do? If so, they are in
the correct cultivating position.
6. Reinsert the pins.
WARNING DANGER
IF YOUR TINES GET JAMMED OR ENTANGLED,
SHUT OFF THE ENGINE AT ONCE.
REMOVE THE OBSTRUCTION WHILE THE
ENGINE IS OFF.
NEVER TRY TO REMOVE AN OBSTRUCTION
WHILE THE ENGINE IS RUNNING. SERIOUS
INJURY CAN RESULT.
Now You’re Ready to Cultivate or Weed.
Guide your Tiller/Cultivator where you want to weed and start it up. Pull
your Tiller/Cultivator backward slowly, then let it move forward a bit, in a
gentle rocking motion. Watch it slice, shred, and bury those weeds!
Got tough weeds? Lighten your pressure on the throttle to slow your
Tiller/Cultivator down. Then work back and forth until your
Tiller/Cultivator chops up the weeds. It’s easy and effective!
Remember, any Tiller/Cultivator will tangle in tall grass, stringy vines, or
super-big weeds. So, if you have a “backyard jungle,” first use a knife,
pruner, or brush cutter to chop up the overgrowth. If the tines become
tangled anyway, turn the engine off completely before trying to clear
them.
Tilling Position
Tine teeth point in the same direction as the rotation of the tine; or toward
the front of the Tiller/Cultivator, away from the operator.
Cultivating Position
Tine teeth point in the opposite direction as the rotation of the tine. Tines
point toward the back of the Tiller/Cultivator, or toward the operator.

Maintenance
How to Check, Clean and Change the Air Filter
Check the air filter every 25 hours of use or more frequently if used
under dusty conditions. A clogged air filter may increase fuel
consumption while cutting down the engine power. Never operate the
blower without the air filter or with a deformed filter element because
unfiltered dusty air will quickly ruin the engine.
Cleaning air filter
1. Remove the air cleaner cover by pulling the tab on side and take out
the 2 filter element.
2. Use neutral detergent and warm water to clean the filter elements.
After cleaning, air dry the element completely and moisten with a
small amount of motor oil.
3. Place the filter element into the air cleaner housing and press the
cover against the housing until it clicks.
Idle Speed Adjustment
1. Warm up engine before adjusting idle speed.
2. The idle speed adjustment screw controls the throttle opening at idle
position.
3. When the engine tends to stop frequently at idling mode, turn the
adjusting screw clock wise.
4. If the tines continue to rotate after releasing the trigger, turn the
adjusting screw counter-clockwise.
Clear Blockages From the Fuel Line & Filter
After you’ve used your Tiller/Cultivator for a few seasons, check for
blockages in the fuel tank and fuel filter. Such blockages can keep your
Tiller/Cultivator from starting.
Clear any blockages you see in the tank, fuel filter, or fuel line.
Remember: The fuel filter is located inside the tank. (See Picture 3)
Then use the normal starting procedure to start your Tiller/Cultivator.
Spark Plug
1. Starting failure and mis-firing are often caused by a fouled spark
plug. Clean the spark plug and check the that the plug gap is in the
correct range. (Picture 4) (.025., 0.65 mm)
2. CAUTION: Do not over tighten the spark plug. To install the spark
plug first turn the plug until it is finger tight, then tighten it a quarter
turn more with a socket wrench.
3. For a replacement plug, use the correct type specified by RedMax.
The replacement plug is Champion RCJ6Y (5602-73110)

How to Reseat the Flange
At some point, you may find that the tines won’t turn when you press
the throttle. This may mean the engine isn’t sitting all the way down on
the worm-gear housing.
Perhaps you’ve been using your Tiller/Cultivator for several years. The
flange bolt (Key #22) may have come loose and lifted the engine up.
If this happened you’ll notice a gap between the bottom of the engine
flange (Key #24) and the top of the wormgear housing. (Picture 1)
To fix this, loosen the flange bolt. Take the engine off the wormgear
housing. Notice the hex head on top of the drive shaft (Key #28). Inside
the flange housing, you’ll find the clutch drum (Key #25). Make sure
the hex head lines up with the clutch drum inside the flange housing.
Then put the engine back on the wormgear housing. Make sure the
plastic carrying handle is not under the fuel tank.
If you’ve followed these steps properly, there will be no gap between the
engine flange and the wormgear housing. (Picture 2) Make sure you
tighten the flange bolt!
How to Check the Grease Level Inside
the Worm-Gear Housing
When we built your REDMAX Tiller/Cultivator, we lubricated the
worm-gear housing thoroughly.
It is imperative that you inspect the grease level once a year. Simply
remove the cover plate on the worm-gear housing. (Picture 1) Then
check to make sure the grease comes almost to the top of the housing. If
it doesn’t, add lithium #0 grease. This is the only way to add grease to
the worm-gear housing. (Picture 3) To purchase grease, contact your
local authorized REDMAX dealer.
Please do not overfill. Too much grease can create pressure, which
could cause seals to fail or the clutch to slip.

Muffler
• Inspect periodically, the muffler for loose fasteners,
any damage or corrosion. If any sign of exhaust
leakage is found, stop using the machine and have it
repaired immediately.
• Note that failing to do so may result in the engine
catching on fire.
Spark Arrester
• The muffler is equipped with a spark arrester to
prevent red hot carbon from flying out of the
exhaust outlet. Periodically inspect and clean as
necessary with a wire brush. In the State of
California it is required by law (Section 4442 of the
California Public Resources Code) to equip a spark
arrester when a gas powered tool is used in any
forest covered, brush covered, or grass covered
unimproved land.
Intake Air Cooling Vent
• Never touch the cylinder, muffler, or spark plugs
with your bare hands immediately after stopping the
engine. The engine can become very hot when in
operation, and doing so could result in severe burns.
• When checking the machine to make sure that it is
okay before using it, check the area around the
muffler and remove any debris. Failing to do so
could cause the muffler to become overheated, and
that this in turn could cause the engine to catch on
fire. Always make sure that the muffler is clean and
free of debris before use.
• Check the intake air cooling vent and the area
around the cylinder cooling fins after every 25
hours of use for blockage. Note that it is necessary
to remove the engine cover in order to view the
upper part of the cylinder.
1. Remove the muffler, insert a screwdriver into the
vent, and wipe away any carbon buildup. Wipe
away any carbon buildup on the muffler exhaust
vent and cylinder exhaust port at the same time.
2. Tighten all screws, bolts, and fittings.
3. Check to see if any oil or grease has worked its way
in between the clutch lining and drum, and if it has,
wipe it away using oil-free, lead-free gasoline.

Storage
Each fall — or before you store your REDMAX
Tiller/Cultivator for any long period — be sure to
take these measures:
1. Do not store your Tiller/Cultivator with fuel still
in it. Even under ideal conditions, stored fuel
containing ethanol or MTBE can start to go stale
in 30 days. And, since stale fuel has a high gum
content, it can clog the carburetor, this, in turn,
will restrict fuel flow. So, when you’re ready to
store your Tiller/Cultivator, or will not be
using it for more than 2 weeks, drain the fuel
tank completely.
2. Next, restart the engine to make sure no fuel is
left in the carburetor. Then run the engine until it
stops. This will prevent gum deposits, forming
inside of the carburetor and possible engine
damage.
3. Disconnect spark plug wire and remove the spark
plug. (Use a 19mm or 3/4" spark-plug wrench.)
Pour about a teaspoon of clean, air-cooled, twocycle oil through the spark-plug hole into the
combustion chamber. Slowly pull the starter cord
two or three times to coat the inside of the
cylinder wall.
4. Inspect the spark plug, and, if necessary, clean it.
If you need to replace it, buy a Champion
RCJ6Y (5602-73110)
5. Install the spark plug, but leave the spark plug
wire disconnected.
6. Clean the air filter as described on page 17.
7. Clean dirt, grass, and other materials from the
entire machine.
8. Wipe the tines with oil or spray them with WD40, to prevent rusting.
9. Oil the throttle cable and all visible moving parts.
(Do not remove the engine cover.)
10. Check the grease level in the wormgear housing,
as described on page 18.
11. Order new parts to replace any that are badly
worn or broken. Just contact your local
authorized REDMAX dealer. But do it early, so
you’ll have the parts well before the next
gardening season starts.
12. Store your Tiller/Cultivator — in an upright
position — in a clean, dry place.
13. Do you have fuel left over from last season?
Dispose of it properly. Buy fresh oil and gasoline
next season.
How to Prepare Your REDMAX Tiller/Cultivator
for Restarting
In the Spring, when you take your Tiller/Cultivator
out of storage, remove the spark plug. Pull the starter
cord three or four times to clean oil from the
combustion chamber. Wipe oil from the spark plug.
Place the spark plug back into the cylinder. Reconnect the spark plug wire back on the spark plug.
Then follow the steps on pages 12 to refuel and
restart your Tiller/Cultivator.
Again, Check the Carburetor.
If your Tiller/Cultivator won’t restart in the Spring
— or if it lacks its usual power — the carburetor
may need attention.
Check the Spark Plug Too.
If your Tiller/Cultivator won’t restart, or if it lacks
full power, the spark plug may be at fault. Check to
see if the plug is fouled with oily black deposits.
Clean or replace it if it is.
Also, check whether the center electrode is rounded
at the end, or if the ground electrode is worn. If
either is the case, you should replace it with a
Champion RCJ6Y spark plug. Use a 19mm or a 3/4"
spark-plug wrench to install it. Adjust the plug gap to
.025 in. (0.65 mm)
To Install the spark plug first turn the plug until it is
finger tight, then tighten it a quarter turn more with a
socket wrench.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
To avoid possible damage to the threads, do not
try to remove the plug from a hot aluminum
cylinder head.
