AIR CLEANER SERVICE

A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor. To prevent
carburetor malfunction, service the air cleaner regularly. Service more
frequently when operating the generator in extremely dusty areas.
Do not use gasoline or low flash point solvents for cleaning. They are
flammable and explosive under certain conditions.
Never run the generator without the air cleaner. Rapid engine wear
may result.
1. Loosen the maintenance cover screw and remove the maintenance
cover.
2. Loosen the air cleaner cover screw, and remove the air cleaner cover.
3. Wash the main and outer air cleaner elements in a non-flammable
or high flash point solvent and dry them thoroughly.
4. Soak the elements in clean engine oil and squeeze out the excess oil.
5. Reinstall the main and outer air cleaner elements and the air cleaner
cover. Tighten the cover screw securely.
6. Reinstall the maintenance cover and tighten the cover screw
securely.
