Air Filter

A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor and cause poor engine performance. Inspect the filter each time the engine is operated. Clean the filter more frequently if the engine is operated in very dusty areas.

NOTICE: Operating the engine without a filter will allow dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear. This type of damage is not covered under the warranty.
