Cooling air filter

WARNING!
Stop the engine before doing any maintenance work.
A newly-installed cooling air filter reduces cooling
performance by 4 %.
Installation
1 Slide one half of the filter over the fan cover (as in
fig.1).
2 Turn the half filter until it is able to hang loosely on
the fan cover (see fig. 2).
3 Slide on the other filter half and secure the two
halves together with self-affixing velcro tape (as in
fig. 3a).
4 Fasten the outer velcro tape around the fan cover
guard (as in fig. 3b and 3c).
Removal and cleaning
1 Remove the cooling filter.
2 Brush away any heavy dirt with a soft brush.
3 Rinse the filter with water.
NOTICE! If a cleaning agent is necessary, an eco-
friendly degreaser (e.g. coconut oil based) must be
used as a first choice. Alternatively, use a paraffin
fraction as a second choice.
Spray on the degreaser or apply it using a sponge.
Allow it to act for a few minutes and then rinse with
tap water.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use gasoline, steam, a high-pressure
washer or other cleaning agents.
4 Re-install the filter according to instructions.
