Engine Air Cleaner Element -
Replace
NOTICE
Never run the engine without an air cleaner element
installed. Never run the engine with a damaged air
cleaner element. Do not use air cleaner elements
with damaged pleats, gaskets or seals. Dirt entering
the engine causes premature wear and damage to
engine components. Air cleaner elements help to pre-
vent airborne debris from entering the air inlet.
NOTICE
Never service the air cleaner element with the engine
running since this will allow dirt to enter the engine.
Renew the air filter element if the service indicator is
triggered. Refer to this manual, "Engine Air cleaner
Service Indicator - Inspect" for more information.
Clean the air intake precleaner (if equipped) before
maintenance is performed on the air filter. Refer to
"Engine Air Precleaner - Check/Clean" for more
information.
severe operating conditions may require more
frequent service of the air filter.

Engine Air Cleaner Service
Indicator - Inspect
Some engines may be equipped with a different
service indicator.
Some engines are equipped with a differential gauge
for inlet air pressure. The differential gauge for inlet
air pressure displays the difference in the pressure
that is measured before the air cleaner element and
the pressure that is measured after the air cleaner
element. As the air cleaner element becomes dirty,
the pressure differential rises. If your engine is
equipped with a different type of service indicator,
follow the OEM recommendations in order to service
the air cleaner service indicator.
The service indicator may be mounted on the air
cleaner element or in a remote location.
Observe the service indicator.
Replace the air filter element if the indicator is
triggered by the following event:
• The red piston locks in the visible position.
Test the Service Indicator
Service indicators are important instruments.
