3. Clean the housing interior with warm soap and water. Allow
to dry before reassembly.
4. Inspect the air filter to see if you can clean it or if it should be
discarded. Discard if it is too dirty and replace with a new filter.
4.1 Remove the foam precleaner that is wrapped around the
pleated paper filter. Clean the dirty foam air filter element
with warm water and
mild soap. Replace the
water as necessary, until
the water is no longer
dirty. Allow to dry.
4.2 Dip the filter into clean
engine oil and squeeze
out excess. The engine
may produce smoke
when started for the
first time after the filter
is replaced. This is
excess oil from the
filter and the effect is
temporary.
4.3 Tap the pleated filter against a hard surface to dislodge
dirt and dust. Finer particulate matter may still remain
lodged in the filter’s fibers.
4.4 Use clean compressed air to clean the pleated filter. Set
the compressor to a maximum of 30 PSI. Anything higher
can damage the filter. Hold the air nozzle inside the filter
and direct the air stream outward to blow the dirt and
debris away from the outer surface.
NOTICE! Do not use compressed air with chemicals to clean the
air filter. The chemicals could clog or dissolve the filter material.
4.5 Never attempt to brush the accumulated dust and debris
from the filter. This will force the grime into the fibers and
plug the filter.
