AIR CLEANER SERVICE
AIR CLEANER COVER
FOAM FILTER ELEMENT
PAPER FILTER ELEMENT
AIR CLEANER CASE
A dirty air filter will restrict air flow to the carburetor, reducing engine
performance. If you operate the engine in very dusty areas, clean the
air filter more often than specified in the MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE.
Operating the engine without an air filter, or with a damaged air filter,
will allow dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear. This
type of damage is not covered by the
Distributor’s Limited Warranty.
Release four latch tabs from the air cleaner cover, and remove the
cover.
Remove the foam filter from the cover.
Remove the paper filter from the air cleaner case.
Inspect both air filter elements, and replace them if they are
damaged. Always replace the paper air filter element at the
scheduled interval (see page 16).
Clean the air filter elements if they are to be reused.
