instruction for replacing the air
cleaner lter for every year.

IMPORTANT
The air cleaner will only fulll
its function if it is correctly
and regularly maintained. A
poorly maintained air clea-
ner will mean loss of power,
excessive fuel consumption
and a reduction in engine life.
Do not run the engine with l-
ter element removed.

IMPORTANT
Be sure to ret the cover with
the arrow (on the rear of co-
ver) upright. If the cover is im-
properly tted, evacuator valve
will not function and dust will
adhere to the element. (Refer to
the instructions for replacing
the air cleaner filter for every
year in Chapter Maintenance.)

Although checking the fuel pipe
connection is recommended every
100 service hours, it should be done
every 6 months if operation does not
exceed 100 hours in 6 months.
1. If the hose clamps are loose, apply
a slight coat of lubricant onto the
threads and securely tighten it.
2. The fuel pipe is made of rubber and
ages regardless of period of servi-
ce. Change the fuel pipe together
with the hose clamps every two
years and securely tighten.
