Changing the Air Filter

Service Interval: Every 400 hours Service the air filter
earlier if the service indicator shows
red. Service it more frequently in
extremely dirty or dusty conditions.
Removing the Filter
Service the air-cleaner filter only when the service
indicator displays a red band. Changing the air filter
before it is necessary only increases the chance of
dirt entering the engine when the filter is removed.
Important:
Be sure that the cover is seated
correctly and seals with the air-cleaner body.
1. Prepare the machine for maintenance; refer to
Preparing for Maintenance (page
2. Open the hood; refer to
41).
3. Check the air-cleaner body for wear of damage
which could cause an air leak. Check the whole
intake system for leaks, damage, or loose hose
clamps.
Note:
Replace a worn or damaged air cleaner
and intake-system parts.
4. Pull the latch outward and rotate the air-cleaner
cover counterclockwise

6. 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 housing. 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.
