MAINTENANCE WP-1000
Air Filter
Level 1.
1. Close choke (Cold Start Position [ ]). This prevents dirt
from entering the carburetor throat when the air filter is
removed. Brush accumulated dirt from air cleaner area.
2. Remove air filter cover. Brush dirt from inside cover.
3. Remove air filter and lightly brush debris from filter. Replace
filter if it is damaged, fuel soaked, very dirty, or the rubber
sealing edges are deformed.
4. If filter can be reused, be certain it:
• Fits tightly in the air filter cavity.
• Is installed with the original side out.
5. Install air filter cover.
Note: Carburetor adjustment may be needed after air filter cleaning/replacement. See Carburetor
Adjustment Section.
Fuel Filter
Level 1.
Fuel is VERY flammable. Use extreme care when mixing, storing or handling, or serious personal
injury may result.
1. Use a clean rag to remove loose dirt from around fuel cap
and empty fuel tank.
2. Use the “fuel line hook” to pull the fuel line and filter from
the tank.
3. Remove the filter (A) from the line and install the new filter.
Note: Federal EPA regulations require all model year 2012 and
later gasoline powered engines produced for sale in the
United States to be equipped with a special low
permeation fuel supply hose between the carburetor and
fuel tank. When servicing model year 2012 and later
equipment, only fuel supply hoses certified by EPA can
be used to replace the original equipment supply hose.
Fines up to $37,500 may be enforced for using an
un-certified replacement part.
