TIGHTENING TORQUE
Reference Table 8 below (Tightening Torque ), for retight-
ening of nuts and bolts.
CYCLONE DUAL FILTER ELEMENT TYPE 1
This Honda GX390 engine is equipped with a replaceable,
high-density paper air cleaner element. See Figure 26 for
air cleaner components.
1. Remove the air cleaner cover and foam filter element.
2. Tap the paper filter element several times on a hard
surface to remove dirt, or blow compressed air not
exceeding 30 psi (207 kPa, 2.1 kgf/cm
2
) through the
filter element from the inside out.
NEVER
brush off
dirt. Brushing will force dirt into the fibers. Replace the
paper filter element if it is excessively dirty.
