AIR FILTER
General Information
The air filter should be checked every year or 100 hours. More frequent service may be required in extremely
dirty operating environments. Need for immediate servicing will be indicated by a loss of power, sluggish
acceleration, or an engine which runs roughly with black exhaust smoke.
Air Filter Replacement
1. Remove seat or lift bed to access engine compartment.
2. Lift two latches (3) on the side of the air box (Figure 14-15, Page 14-17).
3. Remove the hose clamp (15) from the air hose and remove hose from the air box assembly.
4. Standing on driver side of vehicle, grasp air hose mounting inlet and open box fully. Remove filter element (12).
5. Using a clean cloth, wipe away any dust or dirt from inside the air box. Remove all dirt build-up around
the inside lip of the box or the box will not seal properly.
• MAKE SURE STEERING WHEEL AND FRONT WHEELS ARE PROPERLY ALIGNED BEFORE
INSTALLING STEERING JOINT.
