WIPER BLADES WARNING 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. ADI0525 1) CLEANING If your windshield is not clear after using the windshield washer or if a wiper blade chatters when running, wax or other material may be on the blade or windshield. Clean the outside of the windshield with a washer solution or a mild detergent. Your windshield is clean if beads do not form when rinsing with clear water. Clean each blade by wiping it with a cloth soaked in a washer solution or a mild detergent. Then rinse the blade with clear water. If your windshield is still not clear after 7-16 cleaning the blades and using the wiper, replace the blades. 2) REPLACEMENT 1. Pull the wiper arm away from the windshield. 2. Push the tab, then move the wiper blade down. 3. Insert the new wiper blade to the wiper arm until a clicking sound is heard.
