MAINTENANCE
Air filter service
A dirty air filter will restrict air flow to the carburettor. To prevent carburettor malfunction, service the air filter
regularly. Service more freqently when operating the engine in extremely dusty areas.
Warning:
Never use gasoline or low flash point solvents for cleaning the air cleaner element. A fire or ex-
plosion could result.
Caution:
Never run the engine without the air cleaner. Rapid engine wear will result.
1. Remove the wing nut and the air filter cover. Remove the elements and separate them. Carefully check both
elements for holes or tears and replace if damaged.
2. Foam element: Wash the element in a solution of household detergent and warm water, then rinse thor-
oughly, or wash in nonflammable or high flash point solvent. Allow the element to dry thoroughly. Soak the
element in clean engine oil, and squeeze out the excess oil. The engine will smoke during initial start-up if
too much oil is left in the foam.
3. Paper element: Tap the element lightly serveral times on a hard surface to remove excess dirt, or blow com-
pressed air through the filter from the inside out. Never try to brush the dirt off; brushing will force dirt into
the fibers.
Replace the paper element if it is excessively dirt.
