Install the seat.
NOTE:
The air filter element should be cleaned every 20–
40 hours. It should be cleaned more often if the
ATV is operated in extremely dusty areas. Each
time the air filter element maintenance is per-
formed, check the air inlet of the air filter case for
obstructions. Check the air filter case rubber joint
to the carburetor fittings and the rubber joint mani-
fold fittings for an air-tight seal. Tighten all fittings
securely to avoid the possibility of unfiltered air en-
tering the engine.
CAUTION:

erly seated in the air filter case.
Never operate the engine with the air filter el-
ement removed. This will allow unfiltered air
to enter the engine, causing rapid engine
wear and possible engine damage. Addition-
ally, operation without the air filter element
will affect carburetor jetting with subsequent
poor performance and possible engine over-
heating.
