1) Take off the air cleaner case cover.
Remove the element from the air
cleaner case cover.
2) This air cleaner element is of dry type.

When disconnecting the spark plug
cables, pull on the boot, not on the
cable itself. Pulling on the cable can
damage it.

screw them in with your fingers to
avoid stripping the threads.
Tighten with a torque wrench to the
specified torque. Do not allow con-
taminants to enter the engine
