Air Cleaner

Service Interval/Specification
Empty and inspect pre–cleaner bowl before each use.
Clean the air filter cartridge after every 100 operating
hours. Service it more often if operating conditions
are extremely dusty or sandy.
Replace the cartridge after every 400 operating
hours, or yearly.
Removing the Air Cleaner Cartridge
1. Park the machine on a level surface, lower the
loader arms, and turn the ignition key to "OFF"
to stop the engine. Remove the key.
2. Unscrew and remove the cover.
3. Unscrew the retaining nut and remove the
cartridge from the air cleaner body.
Servicing Dust Cup And Baffle
Inspect the dust cup and rubber baffle once a week or
every 50 hours operation. However, daily or more
frequent inspection is required when operating
conditions are extremely dusty and dirty. Never allow
dust to build up closer than one inch from the rubber
baffle.
1. Dump dust out of the dust cup. After cleaning
cup and baffle, assemble and reinstall both parts.
Cleaning the Air Filter Cartridge
Service the air cleaner filter every 100 hours or more
frequently in extreme dusty or dirty conditions by
washing or using compressed air. Replace the element
after every four cleanings (400 hours) or annually,
whichever comes first.
1. Clean the element by washing it in a solution of
filter cleaner (Toro Part No. 27-7220) and water,
or blow dirt out of filter by using compressed air.
Note: Compressed air is recommended when
element must be used immediately
after servicing because a washed
element must be dried before it is used.
By comparison, washing the element
cleans better than blowing dirt out with
compressed air. Remember, though,
filter must be washed when exhaust
soot is lodged in the filter pores.
