Examine the air filter bowl and filter element

It is extremely important to keep a clean, dry gas line to do the following:
Prevent oil, water, dirt, and other contaminants from causing damage to internal

components.
Get the best possible cut quality and consumable life.


Drain water from the bowl (if necessary)

A small amount of water can collect in the bottom of
the filter bowl. The filter bowl automatically removes
the water when enough water collects to engage
the float mechanism inside the bowl.
To manually drain water from the bowl, remove the
nut at the bottom of the bowl with your hand.
To prevent damage to the plastic nut, do not use a
wrench or other tool.
