9.7 Engine Air Filter
IMPORTANT! Operating the engine without an air filter, or
with a damaged air filter, can allow dirt to enter the engine,
causing rapid engine wear. This type of damage is not
covered by warranty.
Clean the air filter every 200 hours of operation or annually.
A dirty air filter can restrict air flow to the carburetor, reducing
the engine performance. If the engine is operated in very dusty
areas, clean the air filter more often than specified.
1. Turn the two air-filter cover fasteners to loosen them.
2. Remove the cover.
3. Remove the air filter.
4. Gently tap the air filter on a hard surface to loosen and
remove dust and debris.
5. If the air filter is excessively dirty or damaged, replace it
with a new air filter.
6. Install the air filter in the engine.
7. Install the cover.
8. Tighten the two air-filter cover fasteners.

IMPORTANT! When assembling or replacing wire
harnesses, apply a thin coating of silicone dielectric grease
to the harness connectors.
Clean off any corrosion or loose particles, then apply a
small amount to the surfaces of the connectors where they
meet. The grease helps to stop any possibility of future
corrosion.
Reassemble the connection. If grease squeezes out, wipe off
with a rag or towel.
