condition of the inner element. It should be
replaced whenever it appears dirty, typically
every other time the main element is replaced.

element before removing it, so dirt does not get
into the engine. See Figure 17.
Figure 17. Removing Inner Element.

hose is securely clamped to both the air cleaner outlet
and the inlet elbow on the carburetor.

Cooling Fan Assembly, Belt, and Drive Pulleys
The cooling fan assembly, used to draw the air in and
across the radiator, is attached to a hub and pulley
assembly with sealed ball bearings. It is belt driven
by a lower split pulley attached to the flywheel and
requires very little service or maintenance. DO NOT
operate the engine without the fan and cooling
system functioning properly, or engine damage will
occur. See Figure 19.
