ENGINE OIL CHANGE<br />
Drain the used oil as long as the engine is still warm. Warm oil<br />
drains quickly and completely.<br />

2. Drain the oil completely. Now install the oil drain plug again<br />
(tighten).<br />
Dispose of the used oil in an environmentally compatible<br />
manner. We recommend bringing the used oil in a tightly<br />
closed container to your local service station or petrol<br />
station. Do not discard used oil with the domestic waste; do<br />
not dispose of into the soil or pour it into the sewer drain.<br />

AIR FILTER INSPECTION<br />
Remove the air filter cover and inspect the filter. Clean or replace<br />
the soiled filter elements. Make sure to replace damaged filter<br />
elements.<br />

AIR FILTER MAINTENANCE<br />
A soiled air filter reduces the air supply to the carburettor and<br />
thus the engine power.<br />
When operating the engine in dusty environments the air filter<br />
must be cleaned more often than specified in the<br />
MAINTENANCE PLAN.<br />
1. Remove the air filter cover and the air filter.<br />
Foam air filter element: Clean in warm soap water, rinse<br />
thoroughly and dry well. Submerge the filter element in<br />
clean engine oil and squeeze out the excess oil. The engine<br />
smokes<br />
if the foam contains too much excess oil.<br />
2. Wipe off the dirt from the inside of the air filter bracket using<br />
a wet rag. Make sure that no dirt enters the air line to the<br />
carburettor.<br />
3. Install the air filter cover.<br />
Operating the engine without air filter or with damaged air<br />
filter allows dirt to enter the engine and causes quicker wear.<br />
Such damages are not covered by the manufacturer<br />
warranty.<br />
