3. Remove the cover from the air-cleaner body.
4. Before removing the filter, use low-pressure air—275
kPa (40 psi), clean and dry—to help remove large
accumulations of debris packed between outside
of primary filter and the canister. Avoid using
high-pressure air, which could force dirt through
the filter into the intake tract.
This cleaning process prevents debris from migrating
into the intake when the primary filter is removed.
5. Remove and replace the primary filter
Cleaning of the used element is not recommended due
to the possibility of damage to 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.
Insert the new filter by applying pressure to the outer
rim of the element to seat it in the canister. Do not
apply pressure to the flexible center of the filter.
