ENGINE
Read all of SAFETY and this section before attempting any procedure. Pay particular attention to Notices, Cautions, Warnings and Dangers.
2.
Rotate the crankshaft to position the cylinder to be
B
tested 10°-15° past TDC so that the exhaust valve is
closed.
3.
Lock the crankshaft in position with a strap wrench
wrapped around the drive clutch.
4.
Select the spark plug adapter that fits the spark plug
hole.
5.
Connect the leak down gauge.
6.
Turn the regulator knob counterclockwise to zero out
the incoming pressure.
7.
Connect the compressed air hose and turn the regu-
lator knob clockwise to pressurize the cylinder.
8.
Compare the reading of the compression gauge with
the setting on the regulator to obtain the leak down
percentage.
9.
Repeat the process for the next cylinder.
10. Record the leakage percentage for each cylinder.
Maximum leak down should run no more than 10 -
15%.
11. Listen to see if air is escaping through the carburetor,
the oil filler or the exhaust. Air leaking through the
carburetor or throttle body indicates poor sealing of
the intake valve. Leaking from the tail pipe indicates
poor exhaust valve sealing. Air leaking around the
outside of the head gasket flange indicates a blown
head gasket.

How do I get to the top nut on the front shock #30? Do I need to remove the front body?
To access the top nut (#30) on the front shock of a Cushman Hauler 1200, you need to compress the shock absorber to clear the mounting bracket. Then, use a 9/16” wrench to loosen the nut while holding the shock absorber in place. There is no mention of needing to remove the front body, so it is not necessary.
