12.5.2 Cleaning the spark plug

Check the spark plug for contamination after the first 10 hours
of operation and clean it with a copper wire brush if required.
Afterwards, service the spark plug after every 50 hours of op-
eration.
Replace the spark plug:
• once in a month if the device is often used
• when the insulating body is damaged,
• when the electrodes show excessive erosion,
• when the electrodes show excessive dirt or oil.

12.5.3 Checking the ignition spark

1. Pull the spark plug connector from the spark plug.
2. Remove the spark plug using the supplied spark plug
socket spanner.
3. Firmly connect the spark plug connector.
4. Use an insulated pair of tongs to press the spark plug
against the engine body (away from the spark plug hole).
5. Slide the ON/OFF switch to the position „I„.
6. Firmly pull the cranking rope on the cranking handle. A
spark between the electrodes is a sign of proper function-
ing.
