5. PRE-OPERATION CHECK
AIR CLEANER
Check that the air filter is clean and in good condition.
A dirty air filter will restrict
air flow to the carburetor, reducing
engine performance.
A damaged air filter will
allow dirt to enter to engine, causing
rapid engine wear.
1 . Remove the cover screws, then remove the air cleaner cover.
2.
Inspect the paper and foam elements of the air filter. Replace the filter if either
of the filter elements are damaged. Clean or replace the filter if the filter elements
are dirty. See page 38 for cleaning
instructions.
3.
Reinstall the air filter and air cleaner cover. Tighten the cover screws securely.
