Engine Maintenance

Checking the Air Cleaner

1. Check the air cleaner body for damage, which could
possibly cause an air leak. Replace a damaged air
cleaner body. Check the whole clean air intake system
for leaks, damage, or loose hose clamps.
2. Service the air cleaner filter when the air cleaner
indicator (Figure 41) shows red or every 400
hours (more frequently in extremely dusty or dirty
conditions). Do not over service the air filter.

Servicing the Air Cleaner
Service Interval: Every 400 hours
1. Pull the latch outward and rotate the air-cleaner cover
counter-clockwise (Figure 41).
2. Remove the cover from the air-cleaner body (Figure
41).
3. Before removing the filter, use low pressure air (40 psi,
clean and dry) to help remove large accumulations of
debris packed between outside of primary filter and
the canister.
This cleaning process prevents debris from migrating
into the intake when the primary filter is removed.
Important: Avoid using high-pressure air which
could force dirt through the filter into the intake
tract.
