AIR FILTER
The air cleaner element must be kept clean to provide good engine power.
If you use your vehicle under normal, low-tension conditions, you should
service the air cleaner at the intervals specified. If you ride in dusty, wet, or
muddy conditions, you will need to inspect the air cleaner element much more
frequently. Use the following procedures to remove the element and inspect
it.
WARNING
Operating the engine without the air cleaner element in place could be
hazardous.
If the air cleaner element did not filter dirt, severe engine damage would
occur if the dirt entered the running engine.
Never run the engine without the air cleaner element in place.
CAUTION
Failing to inspect the air cleaner element frequently if the vehicle is used
in dusty, wet, or muddy conditions could damage your ATV.
The air cleaner element could become clogged under these conditions,
and engine damage may result.
Always check the air cleaner element after riding in severe conditions.
Clean or replace the elements as necessary. If water gets in the air
cleaner case, immediately clean the element and the inside of the case.
