Cleaning the air filter

The main air filter element and sub air filter ele-
ment should be cleaned every 20–40 hours of en-
gine operation. When servicing the air filter
elements, check the air filter case inlet for obstruc-
tions. Check the air filter case rubber joint to the
throttle body and the rubber joint manifold fittings
for an air-tight seal. Tighten all fittings securely to
avoid the possibility of unfiltered air entering the
engine.
