Note: The Plastic ring is not 'handed' and can fit onto the flange
either way round.
• Check the installation.
7. Uni-coupling Clutch
Drive from the engine to the accessory is transmitted by a 12
toothed sprung loaded dog clutch coupling. This should be kept
clean and the teeth regularly inspected for wear (preferably at
every connection or disconnection). Any debris or dirt etc that
becomes lodged between or on the teeth could cause premature
wear and so should be removed as soon as possible. Clean with
a slightly damp soft cloth (a pipe-cleaner or small brush may be
useful to access the spaces between the teeth). Lightly spray the
metal parts of the Uni-coupling with a high quality Silicone Spray.
Lubricant as detailed in the Maintenance Summary Chart. Avoid
spraying rubber components.
8. Recoil Starting System
The ventilation slots should be kept clean and free from any
obstructions. Romove and foreign matter from the ventilation slots.
Do not use sharp, pointed instruments pushed through the slots in
an attempt to dislodge any obstructing material.

LONG TERM STORAGE

If your EVO-SYSTEM Engine is not going to be used for a period of
4 months or more (e.g. over the winter period) the operator should
consider preparing it for long term storage. This will keep the
engine in optimum condition for re-commissioning when required.
• Drain all the fuel from the fuel tank and carburettor into a
suitable approved container.
• A drain plug can be found underneath the carburettor float bowl.
(Fig. 26)
• Replace the drain plug when all the fuel has been removed.
• Remove the spark plug.
• Pour approximately one tablespoon of clean engine oil into the
spark plug hole.
• Ensure that the engine ignition switch is in the 'OFF' position.
• Gently pull the recoil starter a few times.
• Replace the spark plug.
• Gently pull the recoil starter until resistance is felt (this will
mean that the piston is on its compression stroke with both
valves closed). Stop pulling the recoil starter.
• Store the engine in a secure, dry and well ventilated location, under
a cover to prevent dust, debris etc from settling on the machine.
