appropriate cleaning container.
NOTICE
Avoid skin contact with engine oil. Wear protective
clothing and equipment. Wash all exposed skin with
soap and water.
3.
Remove the foam air filter and wash it by submerging
the element in a solution of household detergent soap
and warm water. Slowly squeeze the foam to thoroughly
clean.
NOTICE
DO NOT
twist or tear the foam air filter element during
cleaning or drying. Only apply slow but firm squeezing
action.
