Air Cleaner
See Graphic: wpmgr008845
A dirty air cleaner can restrict air flowing into the carburetor. To keep
the carburetor in good working conditions, please service the air
cleaner periodically. If operating the engine in extremely dusty area,
the job should be done more often.
NOTICE
: NEVER
clean the air cleaner element with gasoline or low
flash-point detergents, or explosion may happen.
NEVER
run the engine without an air cleaner, because air with dirt and
dust entering the engine can speed up the engine wear.
To service:
5.3.1
Remove the air cleaner cover
(a)
off and take the element out.
5.3.2
Wash the foam element
(b)
with detergent and warm water (or non-
flammable or high flash-point cleansing solvents) and dry up.
5.3.3
Clean the air cleaner cover and inner surface with wet cloth, be careful
not to allow the dust entering into the carburetor.
5.3.4
Reinstall the element and put the air cleaner cover on.
