Do not use petrol or inflammable solvents
to wash the air cleaner, in order to avoid
fires or explosions.
c
Carefully read p. 41 (MAINTENANCE).
Remember: 1 mile = 1.6 km
1 km = 0.625 miles
Check the conditions of the air cleaner and clean it
monthly or every 4000 km, depending on the condi-
tions in which the vehicle is used.
If the vehicle is used on dusty or wet roads, the
cleaning operations and any replacement should be
carried out more frequently.
Before the cleaning operation, it is necessary to re-
move the air cleaner from the vehicle.
REMOVAL
Remove the inspection cover, see p. 56 (REMOV-
ING THE INSPECTION COVER).
Unscrew and remove the screw (1), taking the
washer and the breather pipe ring (2).
Unscrew and remove the screw (3) with the rele-
vant washer.
Loosen the screw (4) of the air manifold clamp.
Seize the air manifold in correspondence with the
clamp and pull it, thus removing the whole air
cleaner.
CLEANING THE AIR FILTER
Unscrew the three screws (5).
Remove the filter case cover (6) and extract the fil-
tering element.
To clean the filtering element use clean, non-in-
flammable solvents or solvents with high volatility
point, then let it dry thoroughly.
Apply a filter oil or a thick oil (SAE 80W-90) on the
whole surface of the filtering element, then
c
squeeze it to eliminate the oil in excess.
The filter must be well impregnated,
though not dripping.
