CAUTION: In addition to its function of filtering air drawn into the engine through the carburetor, the air cleaner also
acts as a flame arrestor in the event the engine backfires. Because backfiring may cause fire in the engine compartment,
the air cleaner should be installed at all times unless its removal is necessary for repair or maintenance services.
Paper Element Type — First 12,000 miles, inspect element for dust leaks, holes, or other damage and replace if necessary.
If satisfactory, rotate element 180° from original installation position. Replace element at 24,000 miles. Element must not
be washed, oiled, tapped, or cleaned with an air hose. If so equipped, replace P.C.V. breather filter every 24,000 miles (do
not attempt to clean). If so equipped, clean wire mesh frame arrestor every 12,000 miles.
Oil Bath Type — The oil level in the oil bath air cleaner reservoir should be checked every 12,000 miles and sufficient
S.A.E. 50 oil added when temperature is above freezing or S.A.E. 20 oil added when temperature is below freezing.
Adding oil and servicing the cleaner will vary greatly, depending upon operating conditions.
Oil Wetted Paper Element With Polyurethane Wrap — This dual element air cleaner has extremely long life and will not
require replacement for 50,000 to 100,000 miles under normal operating conditions. Cleaning and oiling of the
polyurethane wrap should be done at 24,000 miles under normal highway or city-type operation. Service under off-
the-road or extremely dusty operations should be performed at 12,000 miles or less depending upon severity of
operating conditions.
