CAREFULLY!
- Running the engine without an air filter in the air duct can cause burns. The air filter serves not only to clean the air, but it also extinguishes the flame in the event of an engine reverse thrust. If the vehicle does not have an air filter installed, the driver and passengers may be seriously burned when the engine is reversed.
- Be careful also when inspecting and repairing the engine with the air filter removed.
