6. The air filter can be cleaned by lightly tapping it on a
hard surface.
NOTE: Never blow compressed air through a paper
air filter. The force of the air moving through
the air filter will remove the tiny paper parti-
cles that trap the microscopic particles of dirt
from the air.
NOTE: The paper element should be white in color. If the dirt does not come out of the filter with gentle tap-
ping, replace the filter.
7. Install the filter by following the previous steps in reverse order.
