WARNING
Never start the engine without having installed the air fi lter
element fi rst. The unfi ltered air causes a quick wear of the
engine parts and might damage the engine. Furthermore, us-
ing the engine without air fi lter, setting of the throttle bodies
is affected, causing a worsening of engine performance, as
well as its overheating.
Therefore, make sure the air fi lter is always in good working
order.
The engine life depends mainly on this part.
