Cleaning the Oil Screen or Engine Flushing procedure

[Ansimp]

I am sure that this info is here somewhere but I couldn't find it quickly so I spent time searching the manual to finally find it. Hopefully this can save some time for someone else in the future or me when I forget where I found the info in the manual ( the clutch section)

These instructions were for cleaning clutch material out of the engine oil system so you may not need to repeat the flushing process if you oil screen isn't too full of debris.

Just FYI, the 1200 filter cannot be cleaned without splitting the case.
The side cover isn't there like the 1000 and 1100 has.

So that does seem like a disadvantage with the 1200s...

 

[backlander]

Yep !!

When I pulled my screen, I was surprised at the amount of non-metal particles that were in it, but for a motor with 112,000 miles I guess that can be expected.

Did you ever figure out what the particles were? Clutch facing bits? Saelant? Dirt?
