Cleaning the air filter
A clogged air filter reduces the engines power output drastically and causes engine
disfunction. Furthermore it reduces the engines lifespan!
Unscrew the screw fixing the cover of the air filter (Fig. L). Remove the air filter cover
(Fig. M), take out the air filter (Fig. N) and clean the air filter (Fig. O) with water. Wring
it out strongly. Let it dry. Drip some drops of oil onto the filter and squeeze the filter to
disperse the oil evenly in it. Mount the filter back and fix the cover again.
