HOWTO CHANGE THE AIR FILTER
Service the air filter once a year; more often
in dusty or dirty conditions.
All engines have
an air cleaner cartridge. In addition, some
engines have a pre-cleaner.
1.
Disconnect the spark plug wire from the
spark plug.
2.
Loosen the screws and remove the
cover (see Figure 16).
3.
Remove pre-cleaner
(if equipped) and
cartridge carefully to prevent debris
from entering carburetor.
4.
To clean pre-cleaner (if equipped), sep-
arate it from cartridge
and wash in liquid
detergent and water. Air dry thoroughly.
Do not oil. Re-install dry pre-cleaner
on
dean cartridge.
CAUTION:
Do not use pressurized
air
or solvents to clean cartridge.
Pres-
surized air can damage
cartridge;
sol-
vents will dissolve cartridge.
5.
Re-install clean (or new) air cleaner as-
sembly in base.
6.
Replace cover and tighten screws.
CAUTION:
Never run the engine without
the air filter. A defective air filter will
cause a loss of engine power. If dirt or
dust enters the engine through the carbu-
retor, the result will be excessive wear or
damage to the engine. Replace a dam-
aged or clogged air cleaner immediately.
