MAINTENANCE

Replacing the Air Filter Pro 18

If the engine seems weak or runs unevenly, the air filter may be clogged. If run with a soiled air filter, carbon can build-up on the spark plugs and lead to malfunction.

Consequently, it is important to periodically replace the air filter (see ”Maintenance \ Maintenance Schedule” for the correct service interval).

WARNING!

Allow the exhaust system to cool before servicing. Risk of burns.

Cleaning/replacement of the air filter is carried out as follows:

1. Loosen the rubber strap under the seat and open the engine cover.

2. Steer fully in one direction (AWD)

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Never run the engine when the air filter has been removed.

Do not use compressed air to clean the paper filter. Do not wash the paper filter.

Filters should not be oiled. They should be assembled dry.

3.Undo both of the snap catches and lift off the cover on the air filter housing.

4.Remove the foam rubber pre-filter and clean

using a mild detergent.

Squeeze it dry with a clean cloth.

5. Remove the wing nut in the air filter and remove the paper filter. Tap the paper filter against a solid surface to remove dust. If the paper filter is still dirty, it must be replaced.

6.Refit the air filter as follows:

Mount the paper filter in the air filter housing and tighten the wing nut.

7.Insert the prefilter on the rectangular part of the

paper filter.

8.Replace the cover over the air filter housing. Move the cover up from below and ensure that the prefilter does not fall out of position. Secure
