MAINTENANCE AND CARE

Air Filter
• Accumulated dust in the air filter will reduce
engine efficiency. Increase fuel consumption
and allow abrasive particles to pass into
the engine. Remove the air filter as often as
necessary to maintain in a clean condition.
• Light surface dust can readily be removed by
tapping the filter. Heavy deposits should be
washed out in suitable solvent.
• Remove filter cover by
loosening air filter
cover knob.
