Engine Maintenance

Servicing the Air Cleaner

Service Interval: Before each use or daily—Check the air
filter service indicator.
Every 25 hours
Every 600 hours—Change the safety air filter (more
frequently in dusty or dirty conditions).
Inspect the air cleaner and hoses periodically to maintain
maximum engine protection and to ensure maximum service
life. Check the air cleaner body for damage which could
possibly cause an air leak. Replace a damaged air cleaner body.
Inspect and change the air cleaner filter as described in the
following procedure:
1. Release the latches on the air cleaner and pull the air
cleaner cover off of the air cleaner body (Figure 42).

2. Squeeze the dust cap sides to open it and knock the
dust out.
3. Before removing the filter, use low pressure air (40 psi,
clean and dry) to help remove large accumulations of
debris packed between the outside of the primary filter
and the canister.
Important: Avoid using high pressure air which
could force dirt through the filter into the intake
tract. This cleaning process prevents debris from
migrating into the intake when the primary filter
is removed.
4. Gently slide the primary filter out of the air cleaner
body (Figure 42). Avoid knocking the filter into the
side of the body.
Note: Do not attempt to clean the primary filter.

5. 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 both filters should be replaced.
6. 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.
7. If you are replacing the safety filter, carefully slide the
new filter into the filter body (Figure 42).
Note: To prevent engine damage, always operate the
engine with both air filters and cover installed.
8. Carefully slide the primary filter over the safety filter
(Figure 42). Ensure that it is fully seated by pushing on
the outer rim of the filter while installing it.
9. Install the air cleaner cover with the side indicated as
UP facing up and secure the latches (Figure 42).
