The air cleaner is the engine’s only defense against
damaging foreign particles.
It is very important that the
air cleaner element is inspected prior to each use.
Remove the element and tap its sides in order to
remove debris. Do not blow the filter out using
compressed air. Doing so will greatly reduce the air
cleaners
effectiveness. Replace yearly; more often in
dusty environments. Adhering to these practices will
help prevent loss of power and premature engine
failure.
