Operation 6. Dry Air Cleaner Dust Collector

A rubber dust collector protrudes beneath the Dry Air
Cleaner body. Periodically, pinch the dust collector which
will open and discharge any accumulated dust.
Operation 7 - Air Cleaner Outer Element
(where fitted)
Raise the radiator cowling and extract the outer element
after removing the retaining wing nut. Clean the element
by tapping on the palm of the hand. Do not beat the
element against a hard surface as the element may be
damaged or distorted.
Alternatively, compressed air not exceeding 30 lbf/in2
(2kg/cm

) may be used. Insert the air line nozzle inside
the element and blow the dust from the inside to the
outside. Blow loose particles from the outside of the
element by holding the nozzle at least 6 in. (150 mm)
from the element.
Clean the inside of the air cleaner casing with a damp
lint-free cloth. Re-install the outer element ensuring that
