Air Filter Cleaning
A dirty air filter restricts air flow to the carburetor,
reducing engine performance. If you operate the
engine in very dusty areas, clean the air filter after
each refueling.
1. Remove the air filter (see page 20).
2. Clean the air filterin warm soapy water, rinse,
and allow it to dry thoroughly. Or, clean in
nonflammable solvent and allow it to dry.
3. Dip the air filter in cleanengine oil, then
squeeze out all excess oil. The engine will
smoke when started if too much oil is left in the
air filter.
NOTICE

Operating the engine with a dry air filter will

allow dust to enter causing engine damage.

The air filter must be oiled after cleaning.

4. Wipe dirt from the air cleaner base and cover
using a moist rag. Be careful to prevent dirt
from entering the carburetor.
5. Reinstall the air filterand air filter cover (see
page 20).
