2. Air cleaner service
A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor. To prevent
carburetor malfunction, service the air cleaner regularly. Service more
frequently when operating the pump in extremely dusty areas.
Do not use gasoline or low flash point solvents for cleaning. They are
flammable and explosive under certain conditions.
Never run the engine without the air cleaner. Rapid engine wear will
result from contaminants such as dust and dirt being drawn through
the carburetor into the engine.
1. Unscrew the wing nut, remove the washer and the air cleaner cover,
and remove the element.
2. Wash the element in a nonflammable or high flash point solvent and
dry it thoroughly.
3. Soak the element in clean engine oil and squeeze out the excess oil.
4. Reinstall the air cleaner element, washer and the cover.
5. Screw the wing nut securely.
