EXHAUST FILTER SERVICE REQUIREMENTS (FOR PZ UNITS WITH DPF ONLY)

The exhaust filter system contains a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). Over time, the DPF will require professional
servicing to remove ash buildup. The expected service interval will be at least 3,000 or 4,500 hours, based on engine
power and operating conditions. Actual service should take place when the indicator light appears on the Power
Zone™ controller. The DPF should be cleaned or replaced by an authorized service provider only. The removal of
DPF ash must be done by removing the DPF from the unit and placing it into specialized equipment.
