8.3 Air cleaner maintenance
See blueprint: wc_gr0001287
This engine is outfitted with a single-element air cleaner.
Frequent cleaning of the air cleaner prevents carburetor malfunctions.
NOTE: NEVER run the engine without an air cleaner, as this can result in major
engine damage.
NEVER clean air cleaner with gasoline or other solvents with a low combustion
point, as this can result in fire or explosions.
Maintenance:
1. Loosen the locks (a) on the upper and lower sides of the air cleaner (filter)
cover (b).
2. Check the filter element (c). Replace if damaged.
3. Clean filter element in warm water and mild laundry soap. Wash out with
clean water thoroughly. Allow element to dry thoroughly. Impregnate the
element in clean engine oil and press out the excessive oil.
4. Reattach the element and air cleaner (filter) cover.
