Air cleaner
Note: We cannot give a warranty for
cleaned air cleaner cartridges.
With its filtering cartridge, the air clea-
ner uses a separator (Fig. A/1) which
considerably extends the service life of
the cleaner element (Fig. A/2). Check
this separator for soiling weekly and
clean if required. The cleaner cartridge
has to be replaced e.g. if the indicator
lights permanently but at least after
600 hours of operation.
Note: do not clean or replace the clea-
ner cartridge with the engine running.
