LEONARDO <strong>250</strong> - <strong>300</strong><br />

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE<br />

• Check the electrode gap with a wire feeler gauge.<br />

• Electrode gap should be 0.7 – 0.8 mm (0.027 –<br />

0.031 in). If it needs adjusting, bend the earth electrode<br />

carefully.<br />

• Make sure the washer is in good condition. Fit the<br />

washer and screw the spark plug finger-tight to<br />

avoid damaging the thread.<br />

• Tighten the spark plug with the spanner you will<br />

find in the tool kit, giving it half a turn to compress<br />

the washer.<br />

WARNING<br />

The spark plug must be well tightened, otherwise<br />

the engine may overheat and be seriously<br />

damaged.<br />

Use recommended spark plugs only. A<br />

spark plug of the wrong grade may shorten<br />

engine life and cause loss of performance.<br />

• Position the spark plug cap (1) properly, so that it<br />

does not come off due to the vibrations of the engine.<br />

DANGER<br />

Ensure the spark plug cap (1) is properly in<br />

place on the spark plug (2).<br />
