4.12.1 To clean the paper filter

Clean the filter by knocking the filter against a flat
surface. Never use solvent with petroleum, for example,
kerosene, or compressed air to clean the filter.
4.12.2 To clean the foam plastic filter (LC
247, LC 247S, LC 247SP)
Remove the foam plastic filter. Wash the filter well in
tepid soapy water. After cleaning, rinse the filter well in
clean water. Squeeze out and allow the filter to dry.
NOTE! High pressure compressed air can damage the
foam. After cleaning the filter should be oiled using
engine oil. Wipe away excess oil by pressing a clean
cloth against the filter.

4.12.3 To change the oil

IMPORTANT! Allow the machine to cool. Hot oil can
cause severe burn injuries.
1. Empty the fuel tank.
2. Unscrew the oil filler cap.
3. Place a suitable vessel to collect the oil in.
4. Drain the oil by tipping the engine so that the oil runs
out through the filler pipe. When the machine is
tilted, make sure the air filter always is placed in the
highest position. Ask where you can dispose of
surplus engine oil at your local petrol station.
5. Fill with new engine oil of the right quality. See
instructions in the section "Technical data".
6. Please see the engine Operator's Manual for more
information.

4.12.4 To examine the fuel system

• Check that the fuel cap and its seal are not
damaged.
• Check the fuel hose. Replace if necessary.
