changed if necessary. Operation with a dirty filter increases fuel consump-
tion, pollutant emissions and engine wear. A damaged or missing air filter
can destroy the engine.
Proceed as follows to service the air filter.
Requirements:
The generator is switched off.
The engine is cooled down sufficiently.
A new air filter insert is ready to use.
