dispose of it properly!

A contaminated air filter can contribute to problems starting the machine,
loss of performance during operation and shorten engine life.
Zipper Machines does not accept any liability for engine damage caused
by failure to clean the air filter regularly.
To clean the air filter, first loosen the wing nut on the air filter housing,
remove the cover (foam filter element) and remove the air filter cassette
(paper filter element). Clean both elements mechanically with a soft
brush.
If only the air filter cassette is to be cleaned, blow a dry jet of
compressed air from the inside against the filter until all dust has been
removed.
An air filter change is necessary when:
 The engine power drops and the fuel consumption increases at the
same time.
 the oil consumption increases
 the starting of the engine becomes more difficult
