the proper service interval).

follows:
Remove the plastic fastener on the top of 1.
the air lter cowling and remove the air lter
cowling.
Remove the foam rubber pre-lter and clean 2.
using a mild detergent. Squeeze it dry with a
clean cloth.
Remove the wing nuts for the air lter and 3.
remove the paper lter.
WARNING!
The engine and the exhaust system
become very hot during operation.
There is a risk for burns if touched.

cool at least two (2) minutes.
