Air Cleaner
(
Supreme and Sports models
)
This is concealed behind the right side panel which must be removed first. The air
cleaner element is retained by a flexible strap and, following its removal, the element
can be withdrawn. It should be cleaned at intervals of about 2,000 miles. Wash the
filter element thoroughly in petrol, allow to dry, and re-assemble. Failure to clean the
filter regularly may cause it to become partially choked with a consequent
deterioration in petrol consumption and performance.
Air Cleaner
(
Bushman model
)
The air cleaner is mounted below the seat and must be taken out for cleaning.
Remove the seat and then the right side panel, when the filter fixing bolts and hose
dips become accessible, and the complete filter assembly can be withdrawn.
Removal of the clip screws allows the unit to be dismantled and the filtering
element to be extracted.
The element is made of a specially treated paper and should receive attention at a
maximum mileage of 1,000—more frequently in exceptionally dusty climates. It is
preferable for the element to be replaced regularly but where this is not possible, it
should be well brushed to remove all traces of dust and the interior of the container
treated similarly.
Failure to clean the filter regularly may cause it to become partially choked, with a
consequent deterioration in petrol consumption and performance.
