Servicing the Air-Cleaner Filter
Service Interval: Every 200 hours (More frequently in
extreme dusty or dirty conditions)
1. Before removing the filter, use clean and dry,
low-pressure air (275 kPa or 40 psi) to help
remove large accumulations of debris packed
between the outside of the primary filter and the
canister.
Important:
Avoid using high-pressure air
that could force dirt through the filter and
into the intake tract, causing damage. This
cleaning process prevents debris from
migrating into the intake when you remove
the primary filter.
2. Remove the primary filter
Important:
Do not clean the used element to
prevent the possibility of damaging the filter
media. Inspect the new filter for shipping
damage, checking the sealing end of the
filter and the body. Do not use a damaged
element.
Important:
Do not attempt to clean the
safety filter. Replace the safety filter after
every 3 primary-filter services
