Operating the engine with the air cleaner
off
can
cause you or others to be burned. The air cleaner
not only cleans the air, it stops flame
if
the engine
backfires.
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 air cleaner
off.
NOTICE:
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.
