NOTE
Instead of washing oil (kerosene), it is possible to wash the
urethane foam element in a solution of mild detergent and
warm water.
Then rinse the element thoroughly in clean water.
Allow the element to dry thoroughly. Soak the element in
clean engine oil and squeeze out excess oil.
NOTE
Clean and replace air cleaner elements more often when
operating in dusty environments. Replace the element in
case that dirt or dust can not be removed and/or that the
element is deformed or deteriorated.
