AIR FILTER AND CLEANING

Wash the filter with a specific detergent (AGIP" Filter clean
foam air detergent fluid" or similar) then dry it fully (wash
filter with gasoline only in case of necessity).
Plunge the filter in special oil for filters (AGIP "Foam air filter
protection oil" or similar), then wring it to drain superfluous
oil.
CAUTION*: Do not use gasoline or a low
flash-point solvent to clean the element. A
fire or explosion could result.
CAUTION*: Clean the element in a well ven-
tilated area, and do not allow sparks or
flames anywhere near the working area.

ASSEMBLY

To ensure tight fit, slightly (C) grease filter edge on side facing
filter housing.
While re-inserting the filter into its housing, make surs that
piece A is turned upwards and edge B is on the left lower side
of the filter case. Reassemble the parts previously removed
(battery: connect the positive cable first).
CAUTION*: If the element assembly is not
installed correctly, dirt and dust may enter
and the engine resulting in rapid wear of
the piston rings and cylinder.
