play in the cable.

Air Filter
The air filter inside the air filter hous-
ing must be kept clean to provide good engine power and gas mileage. If the
ATV is used under normal conditions, service the filter at the intervals speci-
fied. If operated in dusty, wet, or muddy conditions, inspect and service the
filter more frequently. Use the following procedure to remove the filter and
inspect and/or clean it:
1. Remove the seat; then remove the
five screws securing the air filter
housing cover.
2. Remove the air filter housing
cover; then pull the filter out.
3. Place the element in a pan larger
than the element and spray all sides
generously with cleaning solvent, let
sit approximately three minutes.
4. In a pan larger than the element, with a mild detergent (dish soap) and
water, wash all the dirt and oil off by squeezing the element not twist-
ing it (wringing out or twisting the filter can cause damage).
NOTE: Foam Air Filter Cleaner and Foam Air Filter Oil Aero-
sol are available.
5. Rinse off any remaining soap.
6. Remove any excess water from the element by matting with a towel.
7. Allow the element to dry completely.
8. Spray oil generously onto air filter and work the oil into the element.
9. Squeeze the element to remove excess oil.
10. Clean any dirt or debris from inside the filter housing.
11. Inspect the drain cap beneath the main housing for debris and for
proper sealing.
12. Install the air filter and secure with the clamp.
CAUTION
Failure to inspect the air filter frequently if the ATV is used in
dusty, wet, or muddy conditions can damage the engine.
CAUTION
A torn air filter can cause damage to the ATV engine. Dirt and
dust may get inside the engine if the filter is torn. Carefully
examine the filter for tears before and after cleaning it. Replace
the filter with a new one if it is torn.
