● Dust can be cleaned from the air filter either with a vacuum
cleaner, or by washing the filter in a solution of mild de-
tergent and warm water. If you wash the filter, be sure to
allow it to dry thoroughly in a shady place before rein-

● If dirt is allowed to accumulate on the air filter, air flow
will be reduced, lowering operating efficiency and increas-
ing noise.
● During periods of normal use, the air filters should be
cleaned every two weeks.
