MAINTENANCE OF AIR FILTER
MAINTENANCE OF AIR FILTER
A dirty air filter restricts air flow into the carburetor,
decreases engine performance and reduces log

before every start. If the air filter is damaged, replace
it. When working in extremely dirty conditions, clean
the filter every 10 hours, replace it every 25 hours if
needed.
Never operate engine without air filter. Air filter allows to
avoid highspeed wear of engine.
