AIR CLEANER

A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor, reducing
engine performance. If you operate the engine in very dusty areas,
clean the air filter more often than specified in the MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULE.
Operating the engine without an air filter, or with a damaged air
filter, will allow dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear.
This type of damage is not covered by the Distributor's Limited
Warranty.

Inspection

Press the upper latch tab on the top of the air cleaner cover, and
remove the cover. Check the filter element to be sure it is clean and
in good condition.
If the filter element is dirty, clean it as described on this page.
Replace the filter element if it is damaged.
Reinstall the filter element and air cleaner cover securely.

Cleaning

1. Clean the filter element in warm soapy water, rinse, and allow
to dry thoroughly. Or clean in non-flammable solvent and allow
to dry.
2. Dip the filter element in clean engine oil, then squeeze out all
excess oil. The engine will smoke when started if too much oil
is left in the foam.
3. Wipe dirt from the air cleaner body and cover, using a moist
rag. Be careful to prevent dirt from entering the carburetor.
