Air cleaner
The C51 has a dual type filter.
To service the air cleaner filter, follow
these instructions:
Remove the nut, air cleaner cover and
wing nut.
Remove the pre air cleaner elements
and separate them.
Carefully check both elements for
holes or tears and replace if damaged.
Paper element
: tap element lightly
several times on a hard surface to
remove
excess
dirt
or
blow
compressed air lightly through the filter
from the inside out. Never brush the
dirt off; brushing will force dirt into the
fibres.
Foam element
: clean in warm soapy
water,
rinse
and
allow
to
dry
thoroughly. Dip the element in clean
engine oil and squeeze out all the
excess. The engine will smoke during
initial start-up if too much oil is left in
the foam.
Shine a light through the elements,
and inspect them carefully. Reinstall
the elements if they are free of holes
and tears.
