Owner`s manual

For correct engine performance and to guard against dust entering the engine, causing
rapid wear, the air filter assembly must be clean and maintained in good condition. VICTA
recommends that the air filter element and seal ring are replaced annually, or more often in
dusty conditions. Always replace with genuine Victa spare parts. Use of non-genuine spare
parts may damage your mower engine, and void the product warranty.
