If not cleaned correctly, fuel may ignite and even ex-
plode. This leads to severe burns or death.
- Clean the air filter only by knocking it out.
- Never use petrol or flammable solvents to clean
the air filter.
NOTE!
Risk of damage!
Operating the engine without the filter element in
place can cause engine damage.
- Never run the engine without the air filter element
in place.
Fouled air filters (18a) diminish the engine output due
to reduced air supply to the carburettor. Regular in-
spection is therefore essential.
The air filter should be checked every 25 operating
hours and cleaned as required. The air filter must be
checked more often in case of very dusty air.
1. Fold up the body as described at 10.1.
2. Open the screw (36) of the air filter housing (18)
and lift off the housing.
