Air Cleaner Element Cleaning
Carefully use an air hose to blow
the dust from the air cleaner ele-
ment.
NOTE: Always apply air pressure
to the mesh side of the air cleaner
element only. If you apply air pres-
sure to the fabric side, dirt will be
forced into the pores of the ele-
ment, restricting the air flow
through the element.
Installation
Reinstall the air cleaner element
in the reverse order of the
removal.
CAUTION
A torn air cleaner element will
allow dirt to enter the engine
and can damage the engine.
Carefully examine the air
cleaner element for tears dur-
ing cleaning. Replace it with a
new one if it is torn.
