A CAUTION:
Operating the engine with the air cleaner off can
cause you or others to be burned. The air cleaner

If it isn’t there, and the engine backfires,
you could be burned.
Don’t drive with it off, and
be careful working on the engine with the

If the air cleaner is off, a backfire can cause a
damaging engine fire. And, dirt can easily get
into your engine, which will damage it. Always
have the
air cleaner in place when you’re driving.
