Cleaning the air filter:

eration, whichever comes first. Clean
more frequently in dusty conditions.

pletely cleaned. It is advisable to re-
place your air filter with a new one af-
ter every 50 hours of operation, or
annually, whichever comes first.

ting the housing into halves and
washing with hot soapy water.
Rinse with clean cool water.

by pressing the rim of the housing
until it clicks. Air dry completely
before reinstalling.
