Engine Maintenance
WARNING
Contact with hot surfaces may cause personal
injury.
Keep hands, feet, face, clothing and other body
parts away the muffler and other hot surfaces.
Servicing the Air Cleaner
Service Interval: Before each use or daily—Check the air
cleaner for dirty, loose or damaged parts.
Every 25 hours—Service or replace the foam element
(more often under extremely dusty, dirty conditions).
Every 100 hours—Replace the paper element (more
often under extremely dusty, dirty conditions).
This engine is equipped with a replaceable, high density paper
and foam air-cleaner element. Check the air cleaner daily or
before starting the engine. Check for a buildup of dirt and
debris around the air-cleaner system. Keep this area clean.
Also, check for loose or damaged components. Replace all
bent or damaged air-cleaner components.
Note: Operating the engine with loose or damaged
air-cleaner components could allow unfiltered air into the
engine, causing premature wear and failure.
Note: Service the air cleaner more often under extremely
dusty, dirty conditions.
Removing the Elements
1. Rotate the latches outward.
2. Remove the cover to access the air-cleaner elements
(Figure
