Maintenance Tips
- Regularly check and replace the air filter: A clean air filter is crucial for optimal engine performance. Check it every 25 hours of use, and replace it every 100 hours or annually, whichever comes first.
- Use the correct oil type and change it regularly: Refer to your Clinton engine's manual for the recommended oil type and viscosity. Change the oil every 50 hours of use or at least once a year.
- Inspect and clean the spark plug: A fouled or worn spark plug can cause starting problems and poor performance. Clean and re-gap the spark plug every 100 hours of use, and replace it every 300 hours.
- Store your equipment properly during the off-season: Before storing your Clinton-powered equipment for an extended period, drain the fuel, stabilize the remaining fuel with a fuel stabilizer, and store it in a clean, dry place.
