Non-Turbo Model

Do not attempt to clean the air cleaner element. The filter paper of the element is wetted with a special non-inflammable slow-evaporating viscous liquid. It is resistant to cold weather and has a long service life. Dirt adhering to this filter paper forms porous laminations with the viscous liquid, which function as a filtration layer to reduce dust penetration into the filter paper. If this filter paper is cleaned, the filtration layer thus formed will be lost along with the viscous liquid.

  1. Remove the air intake duct from air cleaner case.
  2. Remove the bolt (A) which installs air cleaner case to stays.
  3. Remove the clip (B) above the air cleaner case.
