CAUTION
•
Cleaning the element too often may damage
it and cause the engine to take in dust and
other foreign matter.
•
Keep the air pressure under 700 kPa (100
psi, 7 kgf/cm
2
).
•
Do not blow compressed air into the air
cleaner case. This may cause premature
wear of pistons and cylinder liners due to
dust and other foreign matter carried inside
the engine by compressed air.
•
Do not strike the element or hit it against
another object.
•
If the element is contaminated with oily soot
or dust, replace it regardless of the sched-
uled replacement time.
1. From the inside of the element, blow com-
pressed air evenly up and down along the pleats
of the filer paper.
2. Place a light in the element and check the filer
paper for damage or places where it has worn
thin. Also check the packing for damage.
WARNING
When cleaning air cleaner element, wear gog-
gles and a mask to protect your eyes and res-
piratory organs from dust.
And, use a dust collector to prevent dust
from dispersing into the surroundings.
