Oil Change

Drain the used oil when the engine is warm. Warm oil drains
quickly and completely.
1.
Place a suitable container below the engine to catch the used oil,
then remove the oil filler cap/dipstick, oil drain plug and washer.
2.
Allow the used oil to drain completely, then reinstall the oil drain
plug and new washer, and tighten the oil drain plug securely.
Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible
with the environment. We suggest you take used oil in a sealed
container to your local recycling center or service station for
reclamation. Do not throw it in the trash, pour it on the ground,
or pour it down a drain.
3.
With the engine in a level position, fill to the upper limit mark on
the dipstick with the recommended oil (see page ).
Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine
damage.
4.
Install the oil filler cap/dipstick and push it in securely.

AIR CLEANER

A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor, reducing
engine performance. If you operate the engine in very dusty areas,
clean or replace the air filter more often than specified in the
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE.
Operating the engine without an air filter, or with a damaged air
filter, will allow dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear.
This type of damage is not covered by the Distributor's Limited
Warranty.
Inspection (standard types)
Remove the air cleaner cover and inspect the filter elements.
Clean or replace dirty filter elements. Always replace damaged
filter elements.
Cleaning (standard types)
1.
Remove the wing nut from
the air cleaner cover, and
remove the cover.
2.
Remove the wing nut from
the air filter, and remove the
filter.
3.
Remove the foam filter from
the paper filter.
4.
Inspect both air filter
elements, and replace them if
they are damaged. Always
replace the paper air filter
element at the scheduled
interval (see page ).
WASHER
5.
Clean the filter elements if they are to be reused.
Paper filter element: Tap the filter element several times on a hard
surface to remove dirt, or blow compressed air [not exceeding 207
kPa (2.1 kgf/cm , 30 psi)] through the filter element from the inside.
Never try to brush off dirt; brushing will force dirt into the fibers.
Foam filter element: Clean in warm soapy water, rinse, and allow
to dry thoroughly. Or clean in nonflammable solvent and allow to
dry. Dip the filter element in clean engine oil, then squeeze out all
excess oil. The engine will smoke when started if too much oil is
left in the foam.
