cover off.
3. Remove the filter element and clean the bottom of the bowl.
4. Check that the O-rings are not damaged. If they are, replace
them.
5. Place the filter element in a solvent tank and use a small
brush to clean it. Examine the screen and replace it if there
are holes or damage.
6. Reinstall the filter cover and tighten the screws to 44 lbf•in
(5 N•m) .
7. Fill the tank with clean oil. The proper oil level is when it is

6.7 Engine Air Cleaner
Check air cleaner every 50 hours of operation. Check it more
frequently during dusty, dirty conditions.
Change air filter elements at 100 hours of operation or
annually.
A dirty air filter can restrict air flow to the carburetor, reducing
engine performance. If the engine is operated in very dusty
areas, clean the air filter more often than specified
.
IMPORTANT! Operating the engine without an air
filter, or with a damaged air filter, can allow dirt to
enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear. This
type of damage is not covered by Warranty.
Inspection
Remove the air cleaner cover and inspect the filter elements.
Clean or replace dirty filter elements. Always replace damaged
filter elements.
