The fuel filter is located in the fuel line about 12˝ from
the carburetor on the side of the engine. Replace the
filter yearly. Prior to the removal of the old filter, note the
direction of fuel flow as indicated on the filter. Have
towels readily available in order to quickly remove any
fuel leakage. Always use new hose clamps and ensure
the security of the new filter by lightly pulling on each
hose. Always perform maintenance outdoors or in a well
ventilated area. Do not smoke or allow any open flames
in the vicinity of any maintenance activities.

3.2 Changing your fuel filter:

1) Locate your fuel filter and mark the direction it is

facing.

2) Clamp each side of the fuel filter to minimize and

gas spills.

3) Remove the clips from each side of the fuel filter

and remove the fuel filter.

4) Place the new fuel filter in the same direction as the

old and place clips back into place and remove
clamps.

The air cleaner is the engine’s only defense against
damaging foreign particles. It is very important that
the air cleaner element is inspected prior to each
use. Remove the element and tap its sides in order to
remove debris. Do not blow the filter out using
compressed air. Doing so will greatly reduce the air
cleaner’s effectiveness. Replace yearly; more often in
dusty environments. Adhering to these practices will
help prevent loss of power and premature engine
failure.
