NOTICE
ECA11620


In order to prevent clutch slip-
page (since the engine oil also
lubricates the clutch), do not
mix any chemical additives. Do
not use oils with a diesel speci-
fication of “CD” or oils of a high-
er quality than specified. In
addition, do not use oils labeled
“ENERGY CONSERVING II” or
higher.


Make sure that no foreign mate-
rial enters the crankcase.
6. Start the engine, and then let it idle
for several minutes while checking
it for oil leakage. If oil is leaking, im-
mediately turn the engine off and
check for the cause.
7. Turn the engine off, and then
check the oil level and correct it if
necessary.
EAU39834

wet or dusty areas.
To clean the air filter element
1. Remove the air filter case cover by
removing the screws.
2. Pull the sponge material and the
air filter mesh out.

NOTICE:
To avoid damaging the foam
material, handle it gently and
carefully, and do not twist or
wring it.

5. Apply oil of the recommended type
to the entire surface of the sponge
material, and then squeeze the ex-
cess oil out.TIPThe sponge material should be wet but
not dripping.
6. Insert the mesh and the sponge
material into the air filter case.
NOTICE: Make sure that the
mesh and the sponge material
are properly seated in the air fil-
ter case. The engine should
never be operated without the
mesh and the sponge material
installed, otherwise the pis-
ton(s) and/or cylinder(s) may
become excessively worn.
[ECA15572]
7. Install the air filter case cover by in-
stalling the screws.
To clean the air filter check hose
1. Check the hose at the bottom of

at the intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart.
WARNING
EWA10980


Always let the exhaust system
cool prior to touching exhaust
components.


Do not start the engine when
cleaning the exhaust system.
TIPMake sure to select a well-ventilated
area free of combustible materials to
clean the spark arrester.1. Remove the tailpipe by removing
the bolts, and then pulling it out of
the muffler.2. Tap the tailpipe lightly, and then
use a wire brush to remove any
carbon deposits from the spark ar-
rester portion of the tailpipe and in-
side of the tailpipe housing.
