Operating the enge with the air cleaner off can
cause you or others to be burned. The air cleaner
not only cleans the air, it stops flame
if
the engine
backfires. If it isn’t there, and the engine
backfires, you could be burned. Don’t drive with
it
off,
and be careful working
on
the engine with
the air cleaner
off.
NOTICE:
If
the air cleaner is
off,
a backfire can cause a
damaging engine fire. And, dirt can easily get
into your engine, which will damage it. Always
have the air cleaner
in
place when you’re driving.
