3. Insert 0.10 mm feeler gauge between valve stem tip and
rocker arm.
4. Turn adjustment screw (clockwise = tighter, anticlockwise =
looser) until feeler gauge is almost snug. Back off just
enough to allow gauge to slip out with limited resistance.
5. While holding adjustment screw in place with Allen driver,
tighten locknut with wrench.
6. Turn engine over several times, and return to TDC-compres-
sion. Recheck with proper feeler gauge to make sure clear-
ance adjustment did not change as a result of tightening
locknut. Readjust as necessary.
7. Replace rocker arm cover gasket to assure proper sealing
and install cover.
IMPORTANT
If new gasket is not available and/or old gasket is not damaged,
old gasket may be reused. Never use cracked or damaged gas-
kets.
Never operate the unit with a damaged or missing silencer
or spark arrester! Operating with a missing or damaged
spark arrester is a fire hazard and could also damage your
hearing.
IMPORTANT
Carbon deposits in silencer will cause a drop in engine output
and overheating. Spark arrestor screen must be checked peri-
odically.
1. Remove engine cover.
2. Remove spark arrestor cover and spark arrestor screen from
silencer. Replace screen if plugged with carbon deposits.
