MAINTENANCE

Service of the air filter

If the engine seems to lack power or goes irregularly the reason may be that the air filter is clogged.

It is therefore important to service the air filter at regular intervals (see “Maintenance schedule” for correct service interval).

1.Fold open the engine cover.

2.Unscrew the wing nut (A) on top of the air filter and remove the cover.

3.Carefully remove the precleaner. Wash and reoil the precleaner every 25 hours of opera- tion. Wash the precleaner in warm water with detergent. Rinse precleaner with clear warm water. Squeeze water out (do not wring to avoid tearing). Allow to dry before lightly oiling with fresh engine oil and installing it over the paper filter.

4.Replace the paper filter every 100 hours or if it is clogged with dirt. Unscrew the wing nut (B) and remove the paper filter.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Never use compressed air to clean the air filters.

Paper filter should not be oiled or washed. It should be assembled dry.

5.The paper filter may be carefully tapped on a hard surface to remove dust. Do not try to wash or blow it with compressed air.

6.Insert the paper filter and check that it is correct sealed to its seat. Tighten the paper filter wing nut and install the precleaner over the paper filter.

7.Fit the air filter cover and tighten its wing nut.
