2. INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT 3) Blow air [0.29 – 0.49 MPa {3.0 – 5.0 kg/ cm 2 }] from inside the element to blow dust off as shown in the illustration right. Apply the air blowing pressure as low as possible so as not to damage the element. If having the air cleaner with double ele- ments, never remove and clean the inner element. The aim of installing the inner element is for back up protecting from intaking dust during engine running when leaving the outer ele- ment to reinstall after removing it or when damaging the outer element unexpectedly during engine running. 4) Replace the element with new one. If the element is damaged, excessively dirty or oily.

5) Remove the inside dust cover of the dust pan, and clean inside of the dust pan. 6) Reinstall the element with the wing bolt. (do not leave the gasket.) Reattach the inside dust cover to the dust pan and install the dust pan to the air cleaner case placing the TOP mark upward. IMPORTANT: When the engine is operated in dusty condi- tions, clean the element more frequently. Do not run the engine with removed air cleaner or element, as this may cause for- eign material to enter and damage the en- gine. 2-14 82E-5 – 98E-5 SERIES
