Air Cleaner Element Cleaning and Inspection

NOTE

○

In dusty areas, the element should be cleaned more

frequently than the recommended interval.

○

After riding through rain or muddy terrains, the element

should be cleaned immediately.

○

Also, if there is a break in the element material or any

other damage to the element, replace the element with

a new one.

WARNING

Clean the element in a well-ventilated area, and

take care that there are no sparks or flame any-

where near the working area; this includes any

appliance with a pilot light. B ecause of the danger

of highly flammable liquids, do not use gasoline or

a low-flash point solvent to clean the foam element.

•

Remove the air cleaner element (see Air Cleaner Element

Removal in the Fuel System (DFI) chapter).

•

Clean the element [A] i n a bath of high-flash point solvent.

•

Squeeze it dry in a clean towel [A]. Do not wring the ele-

ment or blow it dry; the element can be damaged.

•

Inspect the element for damage.

If it is torn, punctured, or hardened, replace it.

•

After cleaning, saturate the element with a high-quality

foam-air-filter oil, squeeze out the excess oil, then wrap

it in a clean rag and squeeze it as dry as possible. Be

careful not to tear the element.
