MAXIMUMOUTPUT
The maximum outputof the EC02-A and ECOZ-R is such standard power as developed by theengine, after itsrun-in period
with all themoving parts properly worn-in, when operating with the fully open throttlevalve. Therefore, it follows thata new
engine may not develop this maximum output in the beginning, because moving parts are not
in
a properly worn-in condi-
tion.
,"
2-2CONTINUOUSRATEDOUTPUT
The continuous rated output
of
the EC02-A and EC02-R
is
such power as developed by the engine when running at
an
opti-
mum speed most favorable inview
of
engine
life
and fuel consumption ratio. Therefore,
it
follows that whendesigning adriv-
ing system
for
any mechanism, with the engine, asa prime mover,the continuous power requirement of that mechanism must
be kept below the continuous rated output specified.
2-3
MAXIMUM
TORQUE
and
FUELCONSUMPTIONRATIO at MAX.OUTPUT
The maximum torque
of
the EC02-Aand EC02-R
is
that driving torque
of
the driving shaft at which the engineis driving an
external load, while the engine
is
pulling its rnax. output. The fuel consumption ratio at max. output
is
that fuel consump-
tion ratio
of
the engine while the engine is running at the max.output.

DISASSEMBLY
and
REASSEMBLY
4-1
PREPARATION
and
SUGGESTIONS
1) When disassembling the engine, memorize the locations
of
individual parts
so
as
to
be able to reassemble them correct-
ly. Tag partsif there
is
a possibility
of
confusion.
2)
Prepare several boxes
to
keep parts belonging to certain groups together.
3)
Group those parts related each other, tentatively assemblingwhere they belong, immediately after removing, in order
to prevent missing and misplacing.
4)Handle the disassembled parts carefully and wash them in kerosene.
5)
Use thecorrecttoolsinthecorrectway.
6)
Standardtoolsrequiredfor disassemblingand reassembling:
a) Work table
b) Washing pan
c) Disassembling tools
d) Washing oil (kerosene orgasoline),
2
cycle-oil
e) Emery paper, cloth
7)
Beforestarting
to
disassemble the engine,drainfuel.
8)
Tighten the screws of the cylinder, crankcase, connecting rod, spark plug, and flywheel
to
the specified torque values.
9) Use new packings and gasketsinreassembly.
10)
Immediately before assembling parts, wash them in fresh gasoline orkerosene and blow them dry.
11) Apply
2
cycle-oil on rotating andsliding
parts.
12)
Takecarenot
to
contaminatethepartsbydustduring assembling.
13)
Tighten bolts, nuts and screws with proper torque according
to
the
their sizes.
If
small screws are tightened too tight,
they may get broken.
14) After completely assembling the engine; turn it byhand and check if there
is
any abnormality orloose members.

OPERATION
OF
FLOAT
CARBURETOR
1) Fuel from the fuel tank enters the float chamber through the needle valve, whichis kept open while the fuel levelis
low.
2)
When the fuellevel rises, the float is allowed to move up and lift thearm connected to the needlevalve.
3)
The arm lifted
by
the floatraises the needle valve, which shuts off the supplyof fuel.
4)
When the fuel
in
the float chamber
is
suctioned into the engine through the carb venturi, the fuel amount
is
measured
by
the main je't and the jet needle the fuellevel falls low, causing the float tomove down.
5)
The falling of the floatlowers the arm connectedto theneedle valve, which admits the fuel to enter thefloat chamber.
After this, the same operations in 1)
-
5)
are repeated.
-
11
-

7-2 OPERATION OF DIAPHRAGMCARBURETOR
f-
1)
When the engineruns,positive pressure and negative pressure will alternately occur in the crankcase.This alternation
in pressure
is
led to thereverse side of fuel pumpdiaphragm
so
that the topside will work as fuel pump.
2)
The fuel drawn up by fuel pump enterspressure compensating diaphragm chamber throughthe felt, rubber tube in fuel
tank, fuel pipe and needlevalve.
3)
Thefuel
in
pressurecompensatingdiaphragmchamber
is
sentby pressure,
so
thatthefuelpressure becomes higher
than atmosphericpressure and pushes down thepressure compensating diaphragm.
4)
When the pressureCompensatingdiaphragm is pushed downwards, the arm connected to needle valve turns clockwise
by
the strength
of
spring andpushes
up
the needle valve, which shuts out thesupply of fuel.
5)
The fuel in pressure compensating diaphragm chamber
is
measuredbyhigh speed fuel adjusting screw and jet needle,
entering the engine through the carb venturi. Then, thepressure in pressure compensating diaphragm chamber becomes
lower than atmosphericpressure and the diaphragmis pushed up against the strength
of
spring.
6)
When the pressure compensating diaphragm
is
pushed up, the arm turns counterclockwiseagainst the spring and lowers
needle valve, which admits fuel to enter. After this, thesame operations in
1)
-
6)
are repeated.
NOTE:
I.
OPERATION
OF
LOW
SPEED
FUEL
ADJUSTING
SCREW
When the openingof the throttle
is
small,
it
is
notsufficient tomeasure the fuel only by highspeed fuel adjustingscrew
and jet needle.Therefore,even by lowspeed fueladjustingscrew, fuel
is
measuredandsent to the venturi toadjustthe
/"
density of fuel. Accordingly, inhigh andlow speed fuel adjustingscrews, the direction of turning thescrew
is
reverse to
each other. For instance, when the openingof the throttle
is
LARGE and thefuel
is
RICH,
turn high speed fuel adjust-
ing screw TO THE RIGHT tomake the fuel lean,but when the openingof the throttle
is
SMALLand thefuel
is
RICH,
turn lowspeed fuel adjustingscrew TO THE LEFT tomake the fuel lean.
2.
OPERATlON
OF
TICKLER BUTTON
1)
When tickler button
is
pushed up, the lever connected to needlevalve turns left against thestrength of spring,
loweringneedle valve, whichallows fuel toenter.
At thesame time, when the tickler button
is
pushes up, overflow valve
is
also held open through thelever.
2)
In
acondition of
1/,
if
primer pump
is
repeatedly pushed,fuel
is
pumped upfrom
the
tank and air inpressure com-
pensating diaphragm chamber
is
exhaustedthrought theoverflow valve,
so
thatthepressure compensating diaphragm
chamber
is
filled withfuel.
3)
Further, when primer pump
is
operated continuously, fuel
is
forced to flow into the overflow pipe throughthe
overflow valve and, at the same time, a
little
amount of fuel
is
sent tocarb venturi through the highspeed fuel ad-
justing screw andjet needle.
4)
A little amount of fuel sent to carb venturi by the operation of
31,
if recoil starter
is
pulled,
it
is
taken into the
engine, and becomes somewhatrich and suitablefuel for easy startingof the engine.

TROUBLE
SHOOTING
For a gasoline engineto start and runsatisfactorily, the following three requirements must be met:
1)Thecylinder filled with a proper fuel-air mixture.
2)
Anappropriatecompressioninthecylinder.
3)
Goodspark at correct time
to
ignite the mixture.
If all the three requirements are not met simultaneously, an engine can not be started. There are also other factors
such
as
heavy loadatstartingand
too
longanexhaustpipe causingahighbackpressure,which contributetohardstarting.The
most
common causes
of
engine troubles aregiven below.
