A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor. To prevent carburetor malfunction, service the air cleaner regularly. Service more frequently when operating the engine in extremely dusty areas.
Never use gasoline or low flash point solvents for cleaning the air cleaner element. A fire or explosion could result.
Never run the engine without the air cleaner. Rapid engine wear will result.
