If the engine has been running, allow it to cool
for at least half an hour before cleaning. Clean
all exterior surfaces, touch up any damaged
paint, and coat other areas that may rust with a
light film of oil.
•Using a garden hose or pressure washing
equipment can force water into the air cleaner
or muffler opening. Water in the air cleaner will
soak the air filter, and water that passes
through the air filter or muffler can enter the
cylinder, causing damage.
•Water contacting a hot engine can cause
damage. If the engine has been running, allow
it to cool for at least half an hour before
washing.
