10. TROUBLESHOOTING

When the engine will not start:
1.Is there enough fuel?
2.Is the fuel valve on?
3.Is gasoline reaching the carburetor?
To check, loosen the drain knob with the fuel valve on. Fuel should
flow out freely. Retighten drain knob.
Gasoline is flammable and explosive under certain conditions. Do not
smoke or allow flames or sparks near the equipment while draining
fuel.
4.Is the engine switch on?
5.Is the spark plug in good condition?
Remove and inspect the spark plug. Clean, readjust gap and dry the
spark plug. Replace it if necessary.
6.If the engine still does not start, take the tiller to your servicing
dealer.
