Cleaning the air filter
The air filter has two components. A low resistance pre-
filter and the air filter itself. Regularly clean any dust or
dirt from the air filter to prevent:
•
Carburettor problems
•
Starting problems
•
Reduced performance
•
Unnecessary wear to engine components
•
Excessive fuel consumption
Replacing the fuel filter
Push the hose into the tank until only about 20 mm of the
hose projects from the tank. Insert a 3 mm diameter
steel cable into the hose. Pull the filter out of the filler
hole using pliers.
NOTE! Make sure the hose does not fall into the tank.
Replace the filter. Pull the hose back to its original
position. Remove the cable.
Remove the filter cover and take out the filter. Wash the
filter in soapy water. Soak in filter oil 503 47 73-01 then
squeeze out the excess. Always replace a damaged air
filter.
Replacing the fuel hose
Push the old hose into the tank. Pull the hose and filter
out through the filler hole of the tank. Fit a new hose
through the tank opening. Push the hose in until only
about 20 mm projects from the tank. Insert a 3 mm
diameter cable into the hose and out through the filler
hole. Pull the end of the hose out of the filler hole using
pliers. Fit the filter and pull the hose back to its original
position. Remove the cable.
