3.2 PREPARE THE AIR FILTER
Prepare the air lter before your rst use. Check the maintenance schedule for a
complete cleaning guide.
1. Loosen top nut and remove the air lter cover. Remove the air lter
element.
2. Separate the foam pre-lter from the air lter element.
3. Inspect the paper lter inside the air lter element, shake lter or blow with
air to remove any dust and debris. Replace either lter if damaged.
4. Clean the foam pre-lter with soap and water or solvent and let dry
completely.
5. Wearing gloves, add new engine oil to the foam pre-lter. Work oil into foam
lter until saturated.
6. Squeeze and repeatedly use a towel to pat out excess oil. The result should
be a very lightly oiled pre-lter, if excess oil remains in the foam lter it can
seep through to the paper lter and damage it.
7. Add foam pre-lter back to air lter element and reinstall onto engine.
NOTE
Running the engine without the air lter will quickly degrade the engine
Always inspect air lter before using the pressure washer. Check and
clean the air lter according to the maintenance schedule.
