3. AIR CLEANER

Cleaning:
A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor,
reducing engine performance. If the engine is operated in
dusty areas, clean the air cleaner more often than specified in
the MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE.
NOTICE
Operating the engine without an air cleaner element or with a
damaged air cleaner element will allow dirt to enter the engine,
causing rapid engine wear.
1) Open the left maintenance cover.
2) Loosen the air cleaner cover bolt and remove the air
cleaner cover and air cleaner element.
3) Clean the element in warm soapy water, rinse and allow to
dry thoroughly, or clean with a high flash point solvent
and allow to dry.
4) Dip the element in clean engine oil and squeeze out all the
excess oil.
Excess oil will restrict air flow through the foam element
and may cause the engine to smoke at startup.
NOTICE
Do not twist to squeeze oil from the air cleaner element.
Twisting the element can damage it.
5) Reinstall the air cleaner element and the air cleaner cover.
Tighten the air cleaner cover bolts to the specified torque.
TORQUE: 2.3 N . m (0.2 kgf . m, 1.7 Ibf . ft)
6) Close the left maintenance cover.
