Operating the engine with the air cleaner
off
can-
cause you or others to be burned. The air cleaner
not only cleans the air,
it
stops flame if the engine
backfires.
If
it
isn’t there, and the engine
backfires, you could be burned. Don’t drive with
it
off,
and be careful working on the engine with
the air cleaner
off.
NOTICE:
If
the air cleaner
is
off,
a
backfire can cause a
damaging engine fire. And, dirt can easily get
into your engine, which will damage it.
Always
have the air cleaner in place when you’re driving.
