The Filters fit onto the inside of the intake
Grill. (figure 1)
The bottom edges of the Air Filters should
fit into the filter brackets. (figure 1)
The Air Filters should be pushed down so
that their top edges fit under the projections
at the top of the Intake Grill. (figure 2)
Dust can be cleaned from the Air Filter
either with a vacuum cleaner, or by washing
the filter in a solution of mild detergent and
warm water. If you wash the filter, be sure
to allow it to dry thoroughly in a shady
place before reinstalling.
If dirt is allowed to accumulate on the Air
Filter, air flow will be reduced, lowering
operating efficiency and increasing noise.
During periods of normal use, the Air
Filters should be cleaned every two weeks.
