MAINTENANCE
Efficient engine operation depends on proper
maintenance and service. Radiator shutters and
blower dampers must work in conjunction with each
other.
If
these assemblies have the air supply closed
off, a decided increase in fuel consumpt10n can oc-
cur. Periodic checks should be made to determine
that no leaks are present in the connections and duct
work in the system. Otherwise dust-laden air may
bypass the air cleaner and enter the engine.
The service interval at which the air cleaner units
should be serviced will depend upon the amount of
dust present in the air. This will naturally vary with
service conditions, season, etc. Air cleaner service
should be sufficiently frequent to ensure that no ap-
preciable amount of sludge builds up in the air
cleaner cup.
A. BODY ASSEMBLY
This unit filters the air and condenses the oil from
the air stream so that only dry air enters the engine.
The condensed oil is returned to the cup where the
dirt settles out of the oil and the oil is recirculated.
B. REMOVABLE ELEMENT ASSEMBLY
This unit removes a major part of the dust from the
air stream thus decreasing the dust load to the fixed
wire element. This element is removable for con-
venient service and it reduces the need of frequent
body assembly removal for fixed element service.

Inner Cup
D. Oil Cup
This part acts as a baffle in directing the oil lade_n
air to the element. It also controls the amount of oil
in circulation and meters the oil to the element.
D. OIL CUP
This part supports the inner cup and th~ removable
element assembly and is a reservoir for oil and a set-
tling chamber for dirt.
