5.6 Cleaning the machine

Caution
!
Perform cleaning work only after the engine
has cooled down and with the engine stopped.
Dirty operating conditions, particularly lubri-
cation oil and fuel deposits on the cooling fins
of the engine and the cooling air intake open-
ing have an adverse effect on the cooling of
the engine.
You should therefore immediately seal any oil
or fuel leaks near fuel tank, cylinder or cooling
air intake.

Caution
!
Do not guide the water jet directly into air filter/
carburettor (1) (Fig. 31), starter/air intake (2)
and the ignition switch (3).
After wet cleaning run the engine warm to
l
evaporate all water residues and to avoid cor-
rosion.
