Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emission control device and systems may be performed by any non-road 
engine repair establishment or individual.

WARNING

Make sure that the engine has stopped and is cool before performing 
any service to the blower. Contact with rotating blower fan or hot 
muffler may result in a personal injury.

AIR CLEANER

-

Check the air cleaner before use. 
A clogged air filter may increase fuel consumption while cutting down the engine power. 

-

Never operate the blower without an air filter or with a deformed or broken filter element because unfiltered dusty 
air will quickly ruin the engine. 

CLEANING AIR FILTER:

1. Unscrew the 2 knobs and remove the air cleaner cover. 

(1) Knob

(2) Element

(3) Screen

(4) Packing

2. Wash the filter element with neutral detergent and warm water and then dry 

completely.
(Clean the air filter once in the week.)

3. Moisten the filter element with a small amount of filter oil.

NOTE

-

Do not apply 4 cycle motor oil as they may damage element.

-

 Do not use mixture gasoline. This type of gasoline does not contain 
 much of oil, so that the element becomes dry after a few hours.

-

 Soak the filter element into filter oil.

-

 Squeeze the element to remove excess oil so that it weighs 2 to 3 times 
  heavier than it was dried.

4. Reinstall the element into the packing,set the packing into the air cleaner 

body. 
Never forget to attach the screen properly. If the screen is not attached, the 
cleaner will not seal properly and the dusts come into the cylinder.

5. Reinstall the air cleaner cover and screw the 2 knobs.

FUEL FILTER

-

A clogged fuel filter may cause poor acceleration of the engine. Check 
periodically to see if the filter is clogged with dirt. The filter can be taken out of 
the fueling port using a small wire hook. Disconnect the filter assembly from 
the fuel pipe and unhook the retainer to disassemble it. Clean the components 
with gasoline.
