CAUTION: To prevent eye injury, always wear eye protection
when cleaning the
Þ lter with compressed air!
Do not use fuel to clean the air Þ lter .

take off the cover ( 2 ).

dirt particles from falling into the carburetor.

Pull the air Þ lter ( 5 ) up and out.
Take the pre- Þ lter ( 5a ) out of the cover ( 2 ).
IMPORTANT: Cover the intake opening with a clean cloth to
prevent dirt particles from getting into the carburetor.
Choosing the right Þ lter: The ß eece Þ lter is for use in dry or
dusty conditions. The nylon Þ lter (available as accessory) is for
use in damp conditions. The pre- Þ lter keeps out sawdust, and
prevents powder snow from getting in when working in winter.
Pry apart the top and bottom of the air Þ lter as shown in Fig-
ure.
Cleaning the ß eece Þ lter: Carefully tap out dust or carefully
blow out dust from the inside with compressed air. Do not
brush the
ß eece, as this will force dirt particles into the fabric.
If the Þ lter is very dirty, it can be washed in lukewarm water
with regular dishwashing detergent. Note that the ß eece Þ lter
does not need to be cleaned until there is a noticeable loss of
power. If cleaning the
Þ lter does not bring an improvement in
performance, it is time to replace it.
Cleaning the nylon Þ lter: Use a soft brush or blow out dirt
from the inside with compressed air. If the Þ lter is very dirty, it
can be washed in lukewarm water with regular dishwashing
detergent. Clean frequently (several times a day) when working
in very dusty or dirty conditions. Full engine power is possible
only with a clean air
Þ lter!
Cleaning the pre- Þ lter: When the pre- Þ lter becomes dirty, wash
it in lukewarm soapy water using standard dishwashing liquid.
Let the air Þ lter dry completely .
Put the top and bottom sections back together.
Place the pre- Þ lter back in the cover.
Before assembling the air Þ lter, check the choke ß ap for any dirt
particles. If there are any, remove them with a brush.
CAUTION: If the air Þ lter becomes damaged, replace imme-
diately! Pieces of cloth or large dirt particles can destroy
the engine!
