7.6 ENGINE AIR CLEANER

A. Cleaning and/or Replacing Air Cleaner
Element
For any air cleaner, the operating environment dictates
the air cleaner service periods. To make it convenient
for you we have installed an "Air Cleaner Indicator"
which is located just behind the air filter. The indicator
window will turn red when it is time to service the air
filter. Do not service the filter unless this indicator is red.
In extremely dusty conditions it may be
necessary to check the indicator daily to
prevent engine damage.
1. Snap open the two clips securing the air cleaner
cover to the air cleaner box. Remove the air cleaner
cover, clean the duck bill vent of any dust and set the
cover aside.
2. Remove the air cleaner element and inspect.
3. Clean or replace the element as recommended by
the engine manufacturer.
4. Replace the air filter cover and be sure to snap the
two clips closed.
5. Reset the air cleaner indicator by pushing the button
on the end of the indicator. The indicator window
should return to clear.
