To service the pre-cleaner:

1.Wash in liquid detergent and water.

2.Squeeze dry in a clean cloth.

3.Saturate in clean engine oil.

4.Squeeze in a clean, absorbent cloth to remove all excess oil.

CLEAN ENGINE: Remove dirt and debris with a cloth or a brush. Do not clean with a forceful spray of water. Water might contaminate the fuel system.

CAUTION

Periodically clean the muffler area to remove combustible debris.
