2. AIR CLEANER SERVICE
A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor. To prevent
carburetor malfunction, service the air cleaner regularly. Service
more frequently when operating the generator in extremely dusty
areas.
Do not use gasoline or low flash point solvents for cleaning. They
are flammable and explosive under certain conditions.
Never run the generator without the air cleaner. Rapid engine wear
may result.
1. Open the left side maintenance cover.
2. Unsnap the clips, remove the air cleaner cover.
3. Foam element:
a. Remove the foam element from
the air cleaner cover.
b. Wash the foam element in a
solution of household detergent
and warm water, then rinse
