Air cleaner
1. As the element (A Fig. 34) of the air cleaner
employed on this engine is a dry type, never
apply oil to it.
2. Open the evacuator valve once a week under
ordinary conditions-or daily when used in a
dusty place-to get rid of large particles of dust
and dirt.
3. Avoid touching the element except when
cleaning.
4. When dry dust adheres to the element, blow
compressed air from the inside turning the
element. Pressure of compressed air must be
under 7kgf/cm 2 (100psi)
5. When carbon or oil adheres to the element,
soak the element in detergent for 30 minutes
then wash it several times in water, rinse with
clean water and dry it naturally. After the
element is fully dried, inspect inside of the
element with a light and check if it is damaged
or not. (refering to the instructions on the label
attached to the element.)
NOTE: Make sure the wing-head bolt for the
element is tight enough. If it is loose, dust and dirt
may be sucked into the engine, causing premature
engine wear with resulting loss of power.
