Installation Notes

Carburetor service on small gasoline engines should be performed by a qualified small-engine technician or a knowledgeable equipment owner. Shut off the fuel supply and allow the engine to cool completely before disassembling the carburetor. Work in a well-ventilated area away from open flame, and properly dispose of fuel residue and solvent used during cleaning. Refer to the engine service manual for disassembly sequence and torque specifications applicable to the specific engine model.
