AIR FILTER

Air Filters
Tools required; no tools are needed to access filter cartridges.
Air filters should be checked daily and cleaned on a regular basis. Filter cartridges must be
replaced at the specified time periods stated in the service schedule.

Filter Cartridge Removal

The machine uses 2 filters cartridges, a primary filter and a secondary filter; these are
located in the filter housing at the rear of the engine.
Access to the cartridges requires removal of the filter housing end cap which is secured
with 2 retaining clips.
Both cartridges are 'push fitted' in the filter housing and removal is by pulling them firmly
outwards. The outer cartridge is the primary filter and the inner one the secondary filter.

Filter Cartridge Cleaning

Cartridges should be cleaned using compressed air and a soft brush to remove dust build-
up and contaminates; respiratory protection should be worn when performing this task.
Clean the inside of the filter housing before replacing cartridges; ensure both cartridges
are correctly seated in the housing before replacing the end cap.
