Air Filter

Air Filter Maintenance
To maintain the highest performance from your
engine and to reduce excessive wear that could
cause engine failure the engine requires a
continuous flow of clean air. Air is taken into the
engine through an air filter to clean the air prior to
mixing it with fuel and oil in the carburetor.
During normal operation the filter accumulates
dirt from the air and will need to be cleaned to
maintain the proper air flow. The filter should be
cleaned every 3000 miles, more often if you ride
in a dusty or dirty environment and the element
should be replaced every year.
The air filter box is located on the left side of
the engine under the body cover. It is a black
box about 6" square and is attached to the
crankcase with two bolts and the carburetor by
a tube.

To clean the filter
Remove the air filter box cover.
Remove the filter element from the air box.
Wash the element in a non-flammable solvent
such as Air-Filter cleaner from your local auto
parts dealer.
1. Dry the element completely before
continuing.
2. Soak the element in clean engine oil
until completely saturated.
3. Squeeze out the excess oil until the
element does not drip any oil.
4. Allow the element to dry then reinstall
the element and cover.
