DANGER - EXPLOSIVE FUEL

DO NOT use gasoline as a cleaning solvent, because that would create a risk of fire or explosion.

ENGINEAIRCLEANER

1.Remove the air cleaner cover and foam filter element as shown in Figure 27.

2.Tap the paper filter element (Figure 27) several times on a hard surface to remove dirt, or blow compressed air [not exceeding 30 psi (207 kPa, 2.1 kgf/cm2)] through the filter elementfromtheaircleanercaseside.NEVER brushoffdirt.
