2) When carbon or oil adheres to the
element, soak the element in deter-
gent for 15 minutes then wash it sev-
eral times in water, rinse with clean
water and dry it naturally. After ele-
ment in fully dried, inspect inside of
the element with a light and check if it
is damaged or not.
3. Replace air cleaner element:
Once yearly or after every sixth
cleaning, whichever comes first.
NOTE
Check to see if the evacuator valve is
blocked with dust.
IMPORTANT
The air cleaner uses a dry ele-
ment, never apply oil.
Do not run the engine with filter
element removed.
Be sure to refit the cover with the
arrow (on the rear of cover)
upright. If the cover is improp-
erly fitted, evacuator valve will not
function and dust will adhere to
the element.
Do not touch the secondary ele-
ment except in cases where re-
placing is required.
