Engine Air Cleaner/Filter
1. To remove the air cleaner, remove the fasteners that
hold the cover on.
2. Remove the cover and lift out the air filter.
3. Insert a new air filter, then replace the air
cleaner cover.
4. Tighten the fasteners to hold the cover in place.
CAUTION:
Operating the engine with the air cleaner/filter
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/filter off.
NOTICE:
If the air cleaner/filter 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/filter in place when
you’re driving.
