Air Filter Maintenance - GENERGY LIMITED1000I Instrucciones De Uso

8.2 Air filter maintenance

NOTE: The dirt in the air filter reduces the air flow in the carburettor, limiting
its combustion and promoting serious engine problems. Clean the air filter
regularly, according to the maintenance plan in this manual. In dusty areas, filter
cleaning should be more frequent.
NOTE: The generator should never run without the air filter, otherwise we will
have a quick engine wear.
WARNING: Do not use gasoline or solvents with a low flash point to clean the
filter. They are flammable and explosive under certain conditions.
1. Press the clips of the air filter cover (1) and remove it.
2. Take off the air filter from the inside (2).
3. Clean the air filter using a soap and water solution (3). Let it dry completely.
4. With the air filter very dry, immerse it in oil of the same type of the engine
(4).
5. Squeeze the air filter by hand until all excess of oil is drained (5) (to avoid
the production of smoke).
6. Once cleaned and drained, reinstall the oil filter (6), placing it into filter
housing and close it.
