Fuel filter
• The fuel filter sits inside the fuel tank.
• The fuel tank must be protected from contamination when
filling. This reduces the risk of operating disturbances caused
by blockage of the fuel filter.
• The filter cannot be cleaned but must be replaced with a new
filter when it blocked. The filter should be changed at least
once per year.
Air filter
The air filter should be cleaned regularly removing dust and dirt
to avoid:
• Carburettor malfunction
• Starting problems
• Reduced engine power
• Unnecessary wear to
engine parts
The air filter system consists
of a main filter and a back-up
filter:
• The main filter is an oiled
foam rubber filter that is
easily accessible under the
filter cover (A). In dusty
conditions this filter should
be inspected/replaced after
every other fuelling. In order
to obtain a good filtering
effect, the filter must be
inspected/replaced regularly
or cleaned and oiled. A
special PARTNER oil has
been produced for this
purpose.
• Remove the filter. Wash the
filter carefully in tepid,
soapy water. After cleaning
rinse the filter thoroughly in
clean water. Squeeze out
the filter and let the filter
dry. NOTE! Compressed air
at a high pressure can
damage the foam.
• IOil the filter carefully. It is
extremely important that the
entire filter is saturated in
oil.
• A foam rubber filter that has
been washed many times
wears. Replace with a new
filter if it is not elastic and
seals well against the filter
cover.
• The back-up filter is a paper filter and is accessible under the
cover B. This filter should be replaced/cleaned when the
engine power drops. The filter is cleaned by shaking or
carefully using compressed air. Note the filter must not be
washed!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION!
Insufficient care of the air filter will cause deposits on the
spark plug resulting in abnormal wear to engine parts.
MAINTENANCE
Water valve
Check and clean the filter as
necessary.
A filter used for a long period of time can never be completely
cleaned. Therefore all air filters must be replaced periodically
with a new filter. A damaged air filter must always be
replaced.
