MAINTAINING THE AIR FILTER
Failure to maintain the air filter can result in poor performance or can cause permanent damage to the
engine. Engine failure due to improper air filter maintenance is not covered by the product warranty.
Cleaning the Air Filter
1. Open the air filter cover by unscrewing the cover screw (Fig. 19).
2. Remove the air filter from the air filter housing (Fig. 19).
3. Wash the air filter in detergent and water. Rinse the air filter thoroughly and allow it to dry.
4. Lightly coat the air filter with clean SAE 30 oil.
5. Squeeze the air filter to spread and remove excess oil.
6. Reinstall the air filter in the air filter housing (Fig. 19).
NOTE: Operating the unit without the air filter and air filter cover will VOID the warranty.
7. Insert the hooks on the air filter housing into the slots on the air filter cover (Fig. 20).
8. Swing the air filter cover to the right and align the cover screw with the cover screw hole (Fig. 20).
Tighten the cover screw to secure the air filter cover.
NOTE: Do not over tighten as this may strip the screw.
