right to pull it out.

NOTICE
q The inner element must not be cleaned and used again. When replacing the outer element, replace the
inner element at the same time.
q If the inner element is not installed properly and the outer element and cover are installed, there is
danger that the outer element will be damaged.
q The seal portion on imitation parts lacks precision, and allows the entry of dust, which leads to dam-
age of the engine. Do not use such imitation parts.

Insert the inner element securely so that it does not move.
7. Push the new outer element (5) in straight with your hand when installing it to the air cleaner body.
