MAINTENANCE

Replacing the air filter

If the engine seems to lack power or does not run smoothly this may be because the air filter is clogged.

It is therefore important to replace the air filter at regular intervals (see maintenance schedule on page 17 for correct service interval).

The air filter is replaced as follows:

1. Dismantle the engine hood as described on page 18.

2.Fold out the two snap-locks and lift off the cover on the air filter housing.

3.Release and remove the wing-nut in the centre of the air filter and lift off the paper filter with pre- filter.

4.Pull off the foam plastic pre-filter from the paper filter and wash clean in mild detergent.

Squeeze it dry in a clean cloth.

Drench it with new engine oil. Wrap the filter in an absorbent cloth and squeeze out excess oil.

If the paper filter is heavily soiled it should be replaced.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Do not use compressed air to clean the paper filter.

5.Fit the air filter as follows:

Push the pre-filter over the paper filter.

Fit the paper filter with pre-filter in the air filter housing and tighten the wing-nut in the centre.

Replace the cover over the air filter housing and clamp the two snap-locks tight.
