MAIN AIR FILTER CLEANING
It is advisable to replace the filter when it is dirty. However, in
an emergency it is permissible to clean the main filter if you
observe the following practices.
• Never immerse the filter in water since dirt can be
transferred to the clean air side of the filter.
• If compressed air is used never exceed a pressure
of 40 PSI. Always use a dispersion type nozzle to
prevent filter damage and clean from the inside to
the outside.
• Replace the air filter every 50 hours, and possibly
more often in very dirty conditions.
AIR FILTER/PRE-FILTER SERVICE
It is recommended that the air filter and pre filter be replaced
annually. When riding in extremely dusty conditions,
replacement is required more often.
The pre filter should be cleaned before each ride using the
following procedure:
1. Remove the seat.
2. Remove clips from air box cover (A) and remove cover.
3. Inspect the gasket. It should adhere tightly to the cover and
seal all the way around.
4. Remove air filter assembly.
Cleaning:
5. Slip the pre-filter element off of main element. Clean the
pre filter with hot soapy water.
6. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
7. Inspect element for tears or damage.
8. Inspect main filter and replace if necessary. If the filter has
been soaked with fuel or oil it must be replaced.
Installation:
9. Reinstall pre-filter element over main filter. Be sure the
element covers entire surface of main filter without folds,
creases, or gaps.
10. Reinstall filter on main filter mount. Place filter clamp over
the assembly and tighten.
NOTE: Apply a small amount of general purpose grease
to the sealing edges of the filter before reinstalling.
