Cleaning the Engine Cooling
Areas
Clean the rotating screen, cooling fins, and external
surfaces of the engine every 100 operating hours or more
often under extremely dusty and dirty conditions.
Important
Operating the engine with a blocked
rotating screen, dirty or plugged cooling fins, or cooling
shrouds removed will cause engine damage due to
overheating.
Important Never clean the engine with pressurized
water because water could contaminate the fuel system.

Servicing the Air Cleaner

Check the air cleaner body for damage which could
possibly cause an air leak. Replace a damaged air cleaner
body.
Ensure the cover is sealing around the air cleaner body.
Air Cleaner Filter: Inspect after every 100 operating hours;
replace after every 200 hours or sooner if dirty or damaged.
Note: Service the air cleaner more frequently (every few
hours) if operating conditions are extremely dusty or sandy.
Removing the Filter Element
1. Park the machine on a level surface, set the parking
brake, turn the ignition off, and remove the key.
2. Raise the bed and secure it with the prop rod.
3. Release the latches securing the air cleaner cover to the
air cleaner body. Separate the cover from the body.
Clean the inside of the air cleaner cover (Fig. 28).
4. Gently slide the filter out of the air cleaner body to
reduce the amount of dust dislodged (Fig. 28). Avoid
