Air Filter Cleaning
A dirty air filter restricts air flow to the carburetor,
reducing engine performance. If you operate the engine
in very dusty areas, clean the air filter after each
refueling.
1. Remove the air filter (see page 19).
2. Clean the air filter in warm soapy water, rinse, and
allow it to dry thoroughly. Or, clean in nonflammable
solvent and allow it to dry.
3. Dip the air filter in clean engine oil, then squeeze out
all excess oil. The engine will be hard to start or will
smoke when started if too much oil is left in the air
filter.
NOTICE
Operating the engine with a dry air filter will allow
dust to enter causing engine damage.The air filter
must be oiled after cleaning.
4. Wipe dirt from the air cleaner base and cover using a
moist rag. Be careful to prevent dirt from entering the
carburetor.
5. Reinstall the air filter and air filter cover (see
page 19).
1. Clean in warm,
soapy water.
3. Soak in engine oil
4. Squeeze out excess oil.
