Typically, most engines are fully assembled,

however, some models may require the following

assembly (as applicable). The image below shows

an unassembled electric start petrol model with

exhaust shroud.

Exhaust Shroud

Place the shroud (A) over the exhaust port –

generally with the opening facing down and attach

it using the 4 supplied screws.

Electric Start

For some models with electric start, if the switch block has been

supplied unassembled, it will require attachment to the engine and

the wiring connected. Attach the switch block (B) to the brackets on

the engine using the 2 supplied bolts. The mounting brackets on the

engine may vary slightly between models, however, the switch block

is always located next to the starter motor. Connect wires as

Before Use Checklist

Ensure that you carry out all procedures below before starting the engine or operating the

equipment. All procedures described are generic in nature and slight variations between

different models may exist. Failure to follow the checklist and carry out the procedures correctly may

result in making the product warranty void. The product is NOT supplied with engine oil, although traces

of oil from the manufacturing process may be present. It is essential to add adequate engine oil of the correct

type to the engine before use – see Engine Oil. Failure to add engine oil will void the product warranty.

Engine Oil

Four-stroke engines require engine oil in the crankcase for lubrication of internal components. Severe or

irreparable damage may occur if the engine is allowed to run without engine oil. The engine oil level requires

regular maintenance. Check the engine oil level and ensure that the oil level is at or just under the maximum

level indicator.

Some machines may feature an oil level sensor that will prevent the engine being started or automatically

stop the engine if the oil level falls below an acceptable level. This system, however, is not to be solely relied

upon. Always check that the engine oil level is at or near the "MAX" indicator before starting the

engine. See Engine Oil

.

Air Filter

The air filter is used to prevent dirt and other particles from possibly entering the engine and causing internal

damage to it. The air filter requires regular maintenance.

Always check the air filter before starting the engine. See Air Filter.

Fuel

Petrol/fuel/gasoline is extremely flammable – keep clear of naked flames or other ignition

sources. • The engine must be cool before refuelling.

Adequately fill the fuel tank with the correct fuel type.

• For 4-stroke petrol engines, use non-ethanol unleaded petrol (higher RON values will provide best

engine performance). Do not use old or contaminated fuel.

• For diesel engines, use commercial non-bio diesel fuel. Do not use old or contaminated fuel.

To fill or top up fuel:

1. Place the machine in an upright position on a flat and level surface.

2. Clean the machine around the fuel filler so that no dirt or other material enters the engine when the cap

is removed.

3. Remove (rotate left) the fuel filler cap.

4. Using a funnel, carefully fill the tank with fuel. Do not fill above the top of the strainer (if equipped) or

otherwise overfill the tank.

5. When finished, reinstall (rotate right) the fuel filler cap until firm. Wipe away any residual fuel from the

machine. If fuel has been spilt, move the pump away from the spillage before starting the engine.

Priming the Fuel System

When an engine is new or has been completely run out of fuel it may be

necessary to "prime" the fuel system before attempting to start the engine.

This means removing any air from the fuel line. To prime:

1. Fill the fuel tank with fuel.

2. Remove the fuel line (A) from the carburettor or fuel injector using pliers

to loosen the hose-clamp. Hold a container beneath the fuel line to catch

any spilt fuel.

3. Place the fuel tap in the “ON” position and allow fuel to flow out (into the

container) until no air bubbles can be seen in the fuel stream.

4. Push the fuel line back onto its connection point and re-fasten the hose

clamp.

5. Clean up any spilled fuel. If fuel has been spilt, move the pump away

from the spillage before starting the engine.

6. Start the engine.

Mounting and Connecting to the Engine

Always measure the actual unit before building or drilling mounting frames, drive pulleys etc.

Each engine features a set of holes in the base for mounting and a keyed output shaft. It is essential that the

engine be mounted to a suitable surface, frame etc that is capable of supporting the weight of the engine as

well as any twisting forces it generates.

screw to secure the

throttle in position – to

adjust, loosen the screw

and move it to the

required position, then

tighten it again.

3. TOP DEAD CENTRE –

Slowly pull out the starter

cord (D) until you feel it

engage with the engine,

then allow it to return to

the retracted position.

4. DECOMPRESS – Place

the decompression lever

position, otherwise you

may not be able to start

the engine.

5. START – Rapidly pull the

starter cord (D) (use both

hands if necessary). The engine

should start. Allow the starter cord

to rewind slowly – do not let it

"snap" back to the engine. Each time

you use the starter cord, place the

engine at "top dead centre" (step 3) and

the decompression lever in the "down"

position (step 4) first.

6. WARM-UP – Allow the engine to warm-up and run smoothly.

7. THROTTLE – Adjust the throttle control (B) for the required engine speed. Some models use a screw to

secure the throttle in position – to adjust, loosen the screw and move it to the required position, then

tighten it again.

If the engine does not start, repeat step 3 onward. If the engine fails to

start after several attempts, refer to Troubleshooting

.

Electric Starting

For models equipped with an electric start option, charge the battery then connect a suitable battery cable

(cables may be supplied) between the battery POSITIVE ("+") terminal and the starter solenoid POSITIVE

terminal (this usually has rubber caps for the connectors). Then, connect a battery cable between the battery

NEGATIVE ("-") terminal and an engine case stud / bolt..

1. Follow steps 1 to 5 as per manual/pull starting.

2. START – Turn the ignition key fully to the right to engage the starter motor. The engine should start.

4. THROTTLE – Adjust the throttle control for the required engine speed. Some models use a screw to

secure the throttle in position – to adjust, loosen the screw and move it to the required position, then

tighten it again.

If the engine does not start, repeat step 2 onward. If the engine fails to start after several attempts, refer to

Troubleshooting.

Jump-Starting

If the battery does not have enough charge to sufficiently crank the engine, the engine can be jump-started.

Use a fully charged battery (the "jump" battery) and suitable jump-starting cables. To jump-start:

1. Ensure the ignition is OFF (for some models, this is the position that allows the key to be removed).

2. Connect the jump battery positive ("+") terminal to the engine battery positive ("+") terminal.

3. Connect the jump battery negative ("-") terminal to the engine battery negative ("-") terminal.

4. Follow the normal electric start procedure from step 2 onward.

Stopping the Engine

Stopping in an Emergency

1. To stop the engine immediately, place the engine ON/OFF switch or key switch in the OFF position.

Stopping in Normal Use

1. Place the throttle control in the "SLOW" position.

2. Place the engine ON/OFF switch or key switch in the "OFF" position.

3. Place the fuel tap in the "OFF" position.

Engine Operation

Once the engine is running and has warmed up, adjust the engine speed as required by moving the throttle

lever. In most applications generally, the engine is used at full throttle.

For electric start models, when the engine is running, normal battery charging will occur. The engine must

run for several hours to fully charge the battery.

Environmental Considerations

Altitude - If the engine is being used in altitudes at or above 1500m (approximately 5000'), adjustments to

the carburettor may be required. This is because there is less oxygen in the air as altitude increases, which

effectively “enriches” the ratio of fuel to air going into the engine and the higher the altitude, the richer the

fuel mixture becomes. If the engine is being permanently operated at high altitude, it is recommended to

have an authorized service centre make the necessary carburettor adjustments. If the engine is used

occasionally at altitude (not extreme altitudes), no adjustments should be required, however, a slight

decrease in engine performance can be expected.

Temperature - If the engine is being used in extremely cold or

hot environments; for example, desert or snow conditions, the

type of engine oil may need to be changed to suit environmental

temperatures. Oil thickens as the temperature decreases and

thins as temperature increases, which means that if the engine

oil is not suited to the temperature its ability to properly lubricate

the engine may be affected. Use the following chart to determine

the correct engine oil:

Maintenance

Running combustion engines in confined areas CAN KILL IN MINUTES. Engine exhaust

fumes contain carbon-monoxide – a deadly gas that you cannot smell or see. NEVER run

a combustion engine in confined areas EVEN IF windows and doors are open. ONLY run

combustion engines OUTDOORS and away from doors, windows and vents. • Petrol / fuel

/ gasoline is extremely flammable – keep clear of naked flames or other ignition sources. •

Do not have the engine running during inspection and maintenance unless specifically required. • The engine

should be cool enough to touch before performing maintenance activities. • Some maintenance activities

may be beyond the scope of some users. Do NOT attempt procedures that you are not comfortable with, or

do not have the necessary tools, experience or knowledge for – take the unit to an authorised service centre

or qualified technician for servicing. • Harsh operating environments such as extreme temperatures, dust etc

may necessitate more frequent maintenance. • Failure to follow the maintenance schedule, using

incorrect or non-compatible accessories or replacements parts, or general negligence may result in

making the product warranty void.

To keep the machine performing at optimal efficiency, regular checks and maintenance is required. The

maintenance schedule below specifies preventative maintenance checks and necessary maintenance tasks

and how often they should be performed. The schedule applies to multiple engines; some engines may not

include some components, so maintenance on those components is not applicable.

Maintenance Schedule

Use the following maintenance schedule for a list of regular maintenance tasks and how often they need to

be performed. Maintenance frequency is based on average usage. Be aware of how much the machine is

used and be sure to follow the schedule according to time or usage, whichever comes first.

Towards the end of this document is a form you can use for maintenance record keeping. It is recommended

that you keep a reference of all maintenance.

Major Servicing and "Heavy-Duty" Usage - For engines that are subject to "heavy-duty" use,

which can be defined as being used under loads of 85% or more and / or in use more than

approximately 300 hours per year (for example, generators and water pumps), more frequent "Major

Service" maintenance is required. In addition to normal service requirements, and as with many smaller

machine and off-road bike engines, the following parts (as applicable for petrol, diesel or 2-stroke engines)

may require replacement during a major service:

• Piston rings.

• Big-end bearings.

• Small-end bearings.

• Gudgeon pin.

• Oil rings.

• Gaskets and seals.

• Valve seats.

Inspection of the following items is required:

• Piston for cracks and stress fractures.

• Bore for wear requiring reconditioning.

• Full machine for broken, worn or loose parts.

Failure to follow the maintenance schedule, using incorrect or non-compatible accessories or

replacements parts, or general negligence may result in making the product warranty void.

Engine Oil

The product is NOT supplied with engine oil, although traces of oil from the manufacturing

process may be present. It is essential to add adequate engine oil of the correct type to the

engine before use. Failure to add engine oil will void the product warranty. • Always check engine oil

level when the machine is in an upright position on a flat and level surface. • Do not use used or

contaminated engine oils. • Use only engine oils of the correct type (see Specifications). • Perform the first oil

change within the first 20 hours of use. Subsequently, change the oil every 20 hours of use. • It is

recommended that the engine be warm, but not hot, when performing oil changes. When the oil is warm it

drains faster. • Using dirty or incorrect engine oil may cause engine damage and void any warranty • Always

use suitable tools. • Always dispose of used oil in an environmentally responsible manner and according to

regulations. • Some engines feature oil level detection, which will prevent the engine being started or

automatically stop a running engine if there is insufficient oil. • Always check the oil level and ensure is at

or near the "MAX" indicator before using the machine. • Some models may have 2 oil drain plugs and

fillers on either side of the engine – it does not matter which one is used.

Four-stroke engines require engine oil in the crankcase for lubrication of internal components. Severe or

irreparable damage may occur if the engine is allowed to run without engine oil. The engine oil level requires

regular maintenance as per the maintenance schedule.

To check engine oil level:

1. Place the machine in an upright position on a flat and level surface.

2. Clean the machine around the oil filler cap (A) so that no dirt or other material enters the engine when

the cap is removed.

3. Remove the oil filler cap (rotate left) until fully unscrewed. For machines without a dipstick, the oil level is

determined by how close the oil is to the edge of the filler hole (B). For machines equipped with an oil

level dipstick:

a. Remove the dipstick (C) and wipe clean with a piece of cloth or paper.

b. Insert the dipstick into the oil filler but do not screw it in.

c. Remove and inspect the dipstick – the oil level is determined by where oil can be seen on it.

4. Ensure that the oil level is at or just under the "maximum". If the oil level is low, add additional oil until the

correct level is reached. If the oil level is too high, drain some oil until the correct level is reached.

5. When finished, re-install (rotate right) the oil filler cap until firm. Wipe off any residual oil from the

machine.

To change the engine oil:

1. Place the machine on a suitable work surface that is flat and level and have a container ready to catch

drained oil.

2. Clean the machine around the oil drain plug (D) and oil filler (A) so that no dirt or other material enters

the engine when the plug or cap is removed.

3. Unscrew (rotate left) and remove the drain plug and washer.

4. Tilt the machine and drain all oil from the engine. Once drained, allow the machine to sit level again.

5. Clean the drain plug and washer and then reinstall them. Screw in fully (rotate right) and firmly tighten.

6. Remove the oil filler cap (rotate left) until fully unscrewed. Wipe the oil level indicator clean with a piece

of cloth or paper.

7. Using a funnel, carefully add oil to the engine until the "maximum" level is reached. Double- check the oil

level (described above).

8. When finished, re-install (rotate right) the oil filler cap until firm. Wipe off any residual oil from the

machine.

Air Filter

Operating the machine without a functional air filter may cause severe engine damage and will void

any warranty. • A dirty or oil saturated air filter will restrict air flow, which can be mistaken as fuel

system problems. Check the condition of the air filter before adjusting engine idle speed, where applicable. •

If the air filter is damaged (torn, broken, disintegrating), replace it.

The air filter is used to prevent dirt and other particles from possibly entering the engine and causing internal

damage to it. The air filter requires regular maintenance as per the maintenance schedule.

Inspection and Cleaning

Inspect the air filter for dirtiness and debris, damage etc. Clean or replace the filter element as necessary. To

clean air filters:

• For foam filters, wash the filter in warm water and mild detergent, then rinse and allow to dry.

• For paper filters, use compressed air to blow particles from it. The air should be blown from the engine

side of the filter.

• Clean all other air filter assembly components using water and mild detergent, then dry them.

• For foam filters, place a few drops of clean engine oil on the filter then squeeze it a few times to spread

the oil through the filter material and remove any excess oil.

Removal/Installation – 4-Stroke Petrol Engines

To remove the air filter:

1. Unscrew (rotate left) the wing nut (B) securing the air filter cover (C) and remove the cover from the air

intake assembly (A).

2. Unscrew (rotate left) the wing nut (D) and remove the filter element (E).

To install the air filter:

1. Re-install the filter element and ensure it is seated correctly on the air intake assembly.

2. Re-install (rotate right) the wing nut and tighten by hand so that the filter element is secure. Do not over-

Spark Plug

If the spark plug is damaged (cracked insulator, broken or eroded electrodes etc), replace it. •

Always use spark plugs of the correct "heat range" - see Specifications. Spark plug maintenance is

not applicable to diesel engines.

The spark plug is used to ignite the air/fuel mixture inside the engine. The spark plug has electrodes on one

end and an electrical terminal on the other. The spark plug requires regular maintenance.

Cleaning and Gap Checking

The spark plug should be checked and cleaned as per the maintenance schedule.

1. Remove any carbon deposits on the spark plug (A) electrodes (B) with a wire

brush.

2. Clean the spark plug threads and the electrical terminal (C) on the top.

To check and adjust the spark plug "gap":

1. Use "feeler" or "thickness" gauges (X) to measure the existing gap. The gauge

must drag a little when being slid between the electrodes (2) – this means the

measurement is fairly accurate.

2. Adjust the gap to within specification (see Specifications

). If the gap needs to be

reduced, gently tap the electrode as required. If the gap needs to be increased,

use pliers to gently pull the electrode as required.

3. Measure the gap again and ensure it is within the specified range before re-ins

talling the spark plug.

Removal/Installation

1. Pull the electrical lead (B) from the terminal on top of the spark plug (A).

2. Clean the area around the spark plug so that no dirt or other material can enter the engine when the

spark plug is removed.

3. Use the spark plug tool (C) to remove the spark plug (rotate left).

To re-install the spark plug:

1. Place the spark plug in its hole and screw it in (rotate right) until "finger tight".

2. Use the spark plug tool to tighten the spark plug approximately one quarter turn (do not over-tighten).

3. Place the electrical lead over the spark plug terminal and push it down so that it connects firmly with the

terminal.
