7.3 MAINTENANCE OF THE AIR FILTER
A soiled air filter may cause incorrect operation of the carburettor. Clean the filter often and more
frequently if a lot of dust is formed when working.
PRECAUTION
: Do not use the engine without air filter as this will cause the engine to wear quickly.
Never clean the engine filter elements with fuels or solvents that have a low
inflammation point. They could cause an explosion or a fire.
To carry out maintenance on the filter:
7.3.1.
Unscrew the butterfly nut and remove the air filter lid. Take out the elements, check them
and change them if they have holes or are cracked.
7.3.2.
Foam element: wash it in a soapy solution and rinse thoroughly in clean water. You can
also wash it with solvents that are not inflammable. Leave to dry completely. Soak the
element in clean engine oil and ring out to eliminate excess oil.
7.3.3.
Paper element: tap lightly several times against a hard surface to expel excess dirt, or
apply compressed air from inside out. Change it if it is too soiled.
