Air Filter - Honda HARMONY FG100 Owner's Manual

MAINTENANCE & ADJUSTMENTS
Engine Oil Recommendations
Oil is a major factor affecting performance and
service life. Use 4-stroke automotive detergent oil.
SAE 10W-30 is recommended for general use.
Other viscosities shown in the chart may be used
when the average temperature in your area is
within the recommended ranges.
The SAE oil viscosity and service classification are
in the API label on the oil container. Honda
recommends that you use API SERVICE category
SH or SJ oil with the "starburst" certification mark
displayed on the container.
Air Filter Inspection
1. Move the choke lever to the CHOKE (E)
position to prevent dirt from entering the engine.
2. Press the air cleaner latch tab, and remove the
air cleaner cover. Check the air filter to be sure
it is clean and in good condition.
3. If the air filter is dirty, clean it as described under
Air Filter Cleaning (see page 21). Replace the air
filter if it is damaged.
NOTICE
Operating the engine without an air filter, or
with a damaged air filter, will allow dirt to enter
the engine, causing rapid engine wear. This
type of damage is not covered by the
Distributor's Limited Warranty.
4. Align the air filter with the air filter base as
shown. Reinstall the air filter by locating the five
air cleaner base pegs into the five air filter
holes. Slide the air filter over the pegs until it is
flush with the air cleaner base.
NOTICE
An improperly installed air filter will allow dirt to
enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear.
Make sure the air filter is properly installed and
flush with the air cleaner base before installing
the air cleaner cover.
5. Reinstall the air cleaner cover by hooking the
retaining tabs and snapping the latch tab into
place.
