2. SERVICE OF AIR CLEANER
A dirty air cleaner may block enough air's flowing into the carburetor. To keep the carburetor in good
working conditions, please service the air cleaner peri-
odically. If operating the engine in extremely dusty area,
the job should the done more often.
WARNING
Never clean the air cleaner core in gasoline or low
flash-point detergents, or explosion may
happen.
CAUTION
Never run the engine without an air cleaner, or air
with dirt and dust may enter the engine so speed
the engine's wear.
Double-core type (Fig. 23)
Unscrew the wing nut, dismantle the air cleaner housing.
Check the two cores for dam age. If any, replace with new
one.
a) Foam filter element: clean with home detergents
and warm water (or non-flammable of high flash-point
cleaning solvents ) and dryup, then soak in clean engine
oil until saturated. Squeeze out excess oil, otherwise, the
engine will discharge smoke in starting stage.
b) Paper filter element: knock the core against a solid
plane to get rid of accumulated dust or blow out dust
from inside to outside with high-pressure air flow (not
more than30 psi). Never clean with a brush, as burshing
may force the dust into the core fiber. If the core is
extremely filthy, replace it with a new one.
Dust-collecting type (Fig. 24)
Unscrew the wing nut, dismantle the air cleaner housing,
check the two cores for dam age. If any, replace damaged
core with new one.
a) Foam filter element: clean with home detergents
and warm water (or non-flammable or high flash-point
cleansing solvents) and dry up, then soak in clean engine
oil until sat urated. Squeeze out excess oil, otherwise, the
engine will discharge smoke in starting stage.
