A dirty air filter causes starting difficulties, a loss of performance and shortens the service life of the
engine. Check the air filter monthly. The air filter should be replaced at least once a year for optimal
performance.
Loosen the air filter cover by turning the mounting screw counterclockwise.
•
Remove the filter cover and air filter.
•
Clean the foam filter with warm soapy water. Stand it upright and let it dry.
•
Note! If the foam filter is damaged, it should be replaced.
Apply a light coat of engine oil to the foam filter element, then squeeze it out.
•
Reinstall the air filter.
•
Note! Make sure the filter is properly seated in the cover. If the filter is installed incorrectly, dirt can
enter the engine, which leads to rapid engine wear.
Refit the air filter cover and tighten the fastening screw.
