conditions are extremely dusty or sandy.
Removing the Filters
1. Disengage the PTO, move the motion-control levers to
the neutral-locked position, and set the parking brake.
2. Stop the engine, remove the key, and wait for all moving
parts to stop before leaving the operating position.
3. Push down to release the retaining clamps on the air
cleaner, and pull the air-cleaner cover off the air-cleaner
body (Figure 42).
4. Clean the inside of the air-cleaner cover with
compressed air.
5. Gently slide the primary filter out of the air-cleaner
body (Figure 42). Avoid knocking the filter into the
side of the body.
6. Remove the secondary filter only if you intend to
replace it.
Important: Never attempt to clean the secondary
filter. If the secondary filter is dirty, then the
primary filter is damaged and you should replace
both filters.
7. Inspect the primary filter for damage by looking into
the filter while shining a bright light on the outside of
the filter.
Note: Holes in the filter will appear as bright spots.
Note: If the filter is damaged discard it.
