[Cautions for handling]
●
When changing the cooling water, be sure to
add rustproof solution and idle the engine for
5 minutes to facilitate the mixing of rustproof
solution.
●
Mixing ratio varies a little depending on
manufacturers. Follow the instruction of the
manufacturer shown in its instruction manual.
●
If the cooling water naturally decreases,
replenish only fresh water. (When
semi-permanent type of solution is used,
measure to confirm the specific gravity.)
●
Effective term of antifreeze is one year.
Change the antifreeze yearly.
8. Cleaning and replacing the air
cleaner element
The air cleaner removes sand from the air
flowing in to prevent wear of the cylinder liner
and piston ring and secure the smooth running
of the engine.
The air cleaner is composed of the outer and
inner elements.
Clean the outer element every 100 hours and
replace after cleaning 6 times. When the
machine is operated in dusty place, clean the
outer element at a shorter interval and replace
the element before the specified time limit.
Replace the inner element every 3 times of
replacement of the outer element or 1000 hours,
whichever comes earlier.
<Cleaning the air cleaner element>
(1) Open the bonnet.
(2) Remove the clip, remove the dust cup and
pull out the element in the dust cup. Blow
the air from the inside of the element or
give it vibration to remove dust. Be careful
not to damage the fun.
