Checking screen filter service

Check the outside, inside oil (9.4Liters) cup daily.
The removable and fixed filters are the most sensitive operational
parts of the air cleaner. Unless they are kept clean, the air cleaner
cannot function properly. A plugged filter not only leads to exces-
sive engine wear, but can also cause loss in engine power.
The removable screen filter assembly (if used) should be removed
from the oil cups and inspected daily or at each oil cup service.
