Servicing the Air Cleaner

Primary Filter: Replace after every 200 operating

Replacing the Filters

4. Squeeze the dust cap sides to open it and
knock the dust out.
5. Clean the inside of the air cleaner cover with
compressed air.
6. Gently slide the primary filter out of the air
cleaner body (Figure 33). Avoid knocking the
filter into the side of the body.
Important: Do not attempt to clean the
primary filter.
7. Remove the safety filter only if you intend to
replace it.
Important: Never attempt to clean the
safety filter. If the safety filter is dirty,
then the primary filter is damaged and you
should replace both filters.
8. Inspect the new filter(s) for damage by looking
into the filter while shining a bright light on
the outside of the filter. Holes in the filter will
appear as bright spots. Inspect the element for
tears, an oily film, or damage to the rubber
seal. If the filter is damaged do not use it.
9. If you are replacing the safety filter, carefully
slide the new filter into the filter body
(Figure 33).
