Inspection
1) Remove the air cleaner element. Refer to "Air
Cleaner Element Removal and Installation in Section
1D (Page 1D-6)".
2) Inspect the air cleaner element for clogging. If it is
clogged with dirt, replace it with a new one.
CAUTION
!
If driving under dusty conditions, clean the
air cleaner element more frequently. The
surest way to accelerate engine wear is to
operate the engine without the element or to
use a torn element. Make sure that the air
cleaner is in good condition at all times. Life
of the engine depends largely on this
component.

reinstall the removed parts.

Always apply compressed air to the inside of

applied to the outside, dirt will be forced into
the pores of the air cleaner element,
restricting air flow through the air cleaner
element.
