A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor and allow dirt to enter the
combustion chamber.
Service the air cleaner regularly. Service more frequently when operating the
generator in extremely dusty areas.
CAUTION
Never run the generator without the air cleaner. Rapid engine wear may result.
WARNING
Do not use gasoline or low flash point solvents for cleaning. they are flammable
and explosive under certain conditions.
