Title: How to get at the air filter?
Post by: xlewisbdx on 16 September 2012, 10:52:43 am: Hi guys (again) does anybody know how to get at the air filter?

I have took the two side panels off and don't see anything there to get at the air filter.

Cheers
Lewis

Take that off and the filter just lifts out.

I guess if you're scratching around for the air filter you'll want to do more too.
Best 10-15 quid I've spent. Saved me shed loads.
