Check the air cleaner daily or before starting the
engine. Check for a buildup of dirt and debris around
the air cleaner system. Keep this area clean. Also
check for loose or damaged components. Replace all
bent or damaged air cleaner components.
Note: Operating the engine with loose or damaged
air cleaner components could allow unfiltered air into
the engine causing premature wear and failure.
Note: Service the air cleaner more often under
extremely dusty, dirty conditions.
Removing the Elements:
1. Park the machine on a level surface, disengage the
blade control switch, move the motion control
levers to the brake position, stop the engine,
remove the key, and wait until all moving parts
stop before leaving the operating position.
2. Clean around the air cleaner cover to prevent dirt
from getting into the engine and causing damage.
3. Lift the cover and rotate the air-cleaner assembly
out of the engine (see Figure 45 and Figure 46).
