out any maintenance work.
Maintenance of the air filter
Dirty air filters reduce the engine output by supplying too little air to the carburettor.
Regular checks are therefore essential. The air filter should be checked monthly and
cleaned if necessary. If the air contains a lot of dust, the air filter should be checked more
frequently.
1.
Remove the air filter cover
2.
Remove the filter element
3.
Clean the filter element by washing in soapy water and allowing it to dry completely.
4. Soak in a mixture of 2 stroke oil and squeeze filter to remove excess.
5.
Assemble in reverse order.
Never clean the air filter with petrol or inflammable solvents.
Make sure Air Filter is fitted correctly, (warranty will be void if engine
is damaged due to incorrect fitment)
