NOTICE

ECB00451
Be sure to install the washer with the bent edge
facing outward as shown.
14. Insert the air filter element into the air filter
case, and then tighten the wing bolt.
15. Install the air filter case cover by hooking the
holders onto the air filter case.
16. Install the seat.TIP
The air filter element should be cleaned every 20–
40 hours. It should be cleaned and lubricated more
often if the ATV is operated in extremely dusty ar-
eas. Each time the air filter element maintenance
is performed, check the air inlet of the air filter case
for obstructions. Check the air filter case rubber
joint to the throttle body and the rubber joint mani-
fold fittings for an air-tight seal. Tighten all fittings
securely to avoid the possibility of unfiltered air en-
tering the engine.NOTICE
ECB00760

Make sure that the air filter element is prop-
erly seated in the air filter case.

Never operate the engine with the air filter el-
ement removed. This will allow unfiltered air
to enter the engine, causing rapid engine
wear and possible engine damage. Addition-
ally, operation without the air filter element
will affect the fuel injection system with sub-
sequent poor performance and possible en-
gine overheating.
