Air Filter
The H4 engine that powers your Shin-
daiwa model is a hybrid 4-stroke engine.
As a hybrid, the engine is lubricated by
oil mixed with the gasoline and air from
the carburetor that moves through and
around the internal parts of the engine
in a similar way that a 2-stroke engine
is lubricated. Without the heavy duty
2-stage air lter equipped on all H4
engines, dust and dirt could also move
through the engine, decreasing engine
life, increasing valve wear and the need
for more frequent valve adjustments. To
keep your H4 engine strong and reliable,
Shindaiwa recommends that you check
and service the air lter as instructed in
the 10-Hour Maintenance section that
follows.
