Cleaning the air filter
CAUTION: To prevent eye injury, always wear eye protection
when cleaning the filter with compressed air!
Do not clean the air filter with fuel or flammable liquids!
Disengage the hood clips (5) with the combination tool and
remove the hood (2).
Push up the combination switch (3) (Choke position) to prevent
dirt particles from falling into the carburetor.
Turn the air filter lock (1) counter clockwise to disengage it and
lift away the air filter (4).
IMPORTANT: Cover the intake opening with a clean cloth to
prevent dirt particles from getting into the carburetor.
Cleaning the filter: Carefully tap out dust or carefully blow
out dust from the inside with compressed air. Do not brush the
fleece, as this will force dirt particles into the fabric.
If the filter
is very dirty, wash it out in a lukewarm solution of dishwash‑
ing liquid and rinse it out from the inside under running water.
Note that the filter does not need to be cleaned until there is a
noticeable loss of power. If cleaning the filter does not bring an
improvement in performance, it is time to replace it.
Let the air filter dry out thoroughly.
NOTE: Do not dry it with a heat source.
Before assembling the air filter, check the choke flap for any dirt
particles. If there are any, remove them with a brush.
CAUTION: If the air filter becomes damaged, replace im-
mediately! Pieces of cloth or large dirt particles can destroy
the engine!
Put in the air filter (4) and make sure it is evenly seated in its
space.
Turn the air filter lock (1) clockwise to tighten it.
Push down the combination switch (3) and press the throttle
(6) all the way down one time in order to deactivate the throttle
lock.
Put on the hood (2) and lock it by pressing in the hood clips
(5).
