3HM and
models-Replace the mesh breather
element if it cannot be cleaned or if it is damaged.
5. Reassemble the breather by reversing the disassembly
procedure. Note that the lower

on
3HM and
engines is smaller than the upper plate
DECOMPRESSION MECHANISM
The decompression mechanism on the valve cover
forces the exhaust valves open to reduce compression
pressure in the cylinders. Reducing compression pressure
enables the starter to rotate the crankshaft faster during
starting. Refer to
Figure
3 and Figure
4.
If the mechanism must be repaired, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the valve cover as previously described.
2. Using a suitable punch, drive out the retaining pin.
NOTE
The detent ball and spring will be loose
when you remove the
assembly in Step
3.
3. Remove the shaft assembly from the valve cover.
4. Inspect the mechanism and replace the damaged parts.
5. Reverse the removal procedure to reassemble the de-
compression mechanism. Note the following:
a. Assemble the shaft and lever so the lever points up
while the flat on the valve end of the shaft is down.
