GENERAL AIR CLEANER MAINTE-
NANCE
1. Check the air cleaner body for damage which could possi-
bly cause an air leak. Replace a damaged air cleaner body.
2. Service the air cleaner filters whenever the air cleaner indi-
cator (Fig. 31) shows red or every 400 hours (more fre-
quently in extreme dusty or dirty conditions). Do not over-
service the air filter.
2. Be sure the cover is sealing around the air cleaner body.
SERVICING THE AIR CLEANER
1. Release the latches securing the air cleaner cover to the air
cleaner body. Separate the cover from the body. Clean
inside of the air cleaner cover.
2. Gently slide the primary filter (Fig. 33) out of the air
cleaner body to reduce the amount of dust dislodged.
Avoid knocking the filter against the air cleaner body. Do
not remove the safety filter.
3. Inspect the primary filter and discard it if damaged. Do not
wash or reuse a damaged filter.
IMPORTANT: Never attempt to clean a safety filter.
Replace the safety filter with a new one after every three
primary filter services.
Washing Method
A. Prepare a solution of filter cleaner and water and soak
the filter element about 15 minutes. Refer to direc-
tions on the filter cleaner carton for complete informa-
tion.
B. After soaking the filter for 15 minutes, rinse it with
clear water. Maximum water pressure must not exceed
40 psi to prevent damage to the filter element. Rinse
the filter from clean side to dirty to side.
C. Dry the filter element using warm, flowing air (71° C)
max), or allow element to air-dry. Do not use a light
bulb to dry the filter element because damage could
result.
