AIR CLEANERS
Service the air cleaner frequently to prevent clogging
of the cleaner and to prevent dust and dirt from entering
the engine. Dust bypassing an improper or damaged
air filter can quickly damage an engine. Always make
certain covers and air cleaner connections are tightly
sealed to prevent entry of dirt.
NOTE:
Snow King
®
models do not use air cleaners
due to the clean environment that they operate in
and also to prevent air cleaner freeze-up.
When excessive carburetor adjustment or loss of power
results, inspect the air filter for clogging.
NOTE:
Use factory recommended parts only.
POLYURETHANE-TYPE AIR CLEANER.
These
serviceable air cleaners utilize a polyurethane element
which will clog up with use. The element should be
cleaned and serviced in the following manner.
Wash element in a detergent and water solution and
squeeze (dont twist) until all dirt is removed. Rinse
thoroughly.
Wrap in clean cloth and squeeze (dont twist) until
completely dry.
Clean air cleaner housing and cover. Dry thoroughly.
Re-oil element by applying generous quantity of oil to
all sides. Squeeze vigorously to distribute oil and to
remove excess oil. (S.A.E. 30)
When reassembling polyurethane oval type air cleaners,
place cupped screen into housing with edge against
carburetor end of housing. Screen should be installed
to hold element away from housing to allow full utilization
of air cleaner element.
NOTE:
Polyurethane type filters will lose effectiveness
if stored for extended periods of time, due to oil migration
(settling Down) through the filter. Re-oil filter as
necessary.

polyurethane type element. Service as described under
polyurethane-type air cleaner. When removing air
cleaner body from carburetor, remove plug in the body
