you can learn from here and thats great.. but the engine you have should come with a manual that is from the manufacturer. Follow that.. why? cause.. if you have a gripe.. you can not only tell them that you followed the manual.. but what maint. you did. etc.. Also.. after every run.. And i mean when your done running it for the day.. you can use the after run oil.. or wd 40.. and remove the glo plug.. and squirt just a little down there. and in the carb.. and please.. clean the fins on the head.. and surrounding areas.. also.. after first break in. get a new glo plug.. and take it easy for a while.. on the engine.. it will last a long time.. if you don't beat it up.. and don't maintain it.
