AIR CLEANER
A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor, reducing
engine performance. If you operate the engine in very dusty areas,
clean the air filter more often than specified in the MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULE.
Operating the engine without an air filter element, or with a
damaged air filter element, will allow dirt to enter the engine,
causing rapid engine wear. This type of damage is not covered by
the
Distributor’s Limited Warranty.
Inspection
Remove the two screws and the air cleaner cover. Inspect the air
filter elements. Clean or replace dirty air filter elements. Always
replace damaged air filter elements.
Refer to page 9 for instructions that apply to the air cleaner and
filter service.
Reinstall the air filter elements and air cleaner cover.

Cleaning
1. Remove two screws from the air cleaner cover, and remove the
cover.
2. Remove the foam air filter element from the cover.
3. Remove the paper air filter element from the air cleaner case.
4. Inspect both air filter elements, and replace them if they are
damaged. Always replace the paper air filter element at the
scheduled interval (see page 7).
5. Clean the air filter elements if they are to be reused.
Paper air filter element: Tap the paper air filter element several
times on a hard surface to remove dirt, or blow compressed air
[not exceeding 207 kPa (2.1 kgf/cm
2
, 30 psi)] through the filter
element from the air cleaner case side. Never try to brush off
dirt; brushing will force dirt into the fibers. Replace the paper air
filter element if it is excessively dirty.
Foam air filter element: Clean in warm soapy water, rinse, and
allow to dry thoroughly. Or clean in non-flammable solvent and
allow to dry. Do not put oil on the foam air filter element.
6. Wipe dirt from the inside of the air cleaner case and cover using
a moist rag. Be careful to prevent dirt from entering the air duct
that leads to the carburetor.
7. Place the foam air filter element to the air cleaner cover, then
reinstall the paper air filter element and cover to the air cleaner
case.
8. Install the air cleaner cover, and tighten the two screws
securely.
