3. Wash the foam element in solvent and dry it.
Never use solvent while smoking or in the vicinity
of an open flame.
4. Oil the foam element and squeeze out excess oil.
The foam element should be wet but not dripping.
Do not wring out the foam element when squeez-
ing it. This could cause it to tear.
5. Insert the foam element into the air filter case.
The engine should never run without the foam ele-
ment; excessive piston and cylinder wear may
result.
TIP
Be sure the foam element sealing surface matches the
air filter so there is no air leak.

screws.
