Cleaning the air filter (fig. 1)
The air intake to the engine is done via a double element dry filter.
The life and performance of the engine largely depends on the correct maintenance of
this filter.
Check the intervals for replacing the filter in the
LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE
CHART .
The internal element of the filter must be replaced on every second replacement of the
outer element.
NOTE: If the dumper is used in dusty areas, inspect more frequently than specified in
the LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE CHART .
NOTE: The air filter incorporates an obstruction indicator (vacumeter). If the control
lamp in the front instrument panel is lit, the filter element must be cleaned or replaced
as soon as possible.

When liquids or residues are found, the air filter must be inspected, dried or replaced
independently of the condition in which it is found.
