of the cover. SEE FIGURE 3.

by rotating the cover away from the engine. SEE FIGURE 4.
4. Remove the foam filter element (SEE FIGURE 5) and replace
with a new oiled filter, or clean the original foam filter with
warm water and mild soap by following the previous steps for

with 30 or 40 weight motor oil and squeeze out any excess
