CUB CRAFTERS, INC.
CC18-180 MAINTENANCE MANUAL

1. GENERAL

The induction air for the engine enters through a filter on the lower side of the cowling and from
there the air goes through an air box into the carburetor. The carburetor heat control operates a
butterfly valve that allows heated, unfiltered air to feed into the engine. The carburetor heat
control is located on the top left side of the instrument panel.
CAUTION
Ground operations with the carburetor heat control in the hot position
must be limited because it allows air to bypass the filter.
Should the air filter become obstructed, the carburetor air control provides an alternate manual
means of supplying the engine with air for the induction system.
