SERIES 40 ENGINE OPERATOR'S GUIDE
NOTICE:
Do not allow the air inlet restriction
to exceed 20 inches of water (5.0
kPa) under any engine operating
conditions. A clogged air cleaner
element will cause excessive
intake restriction and a reduced
air supply to the engine. This, in
turn, can result in increased fuel
consumption, inefficient engine
operation and reduced engine life.
Inspect the entire air system for leaks
daily. Look especially for torn air inlet
piping or boots and loose or damaged
clamps. Have worn or damaged parts
repaired or replaced, as required.
Retighten loose connections.
Air Cleaner Replacement
Dry type air cleaner elements
should be replaced after one year
of service or when the maximum
allowable air intake restriction has
been reached, whichever comes
fi
rst.
Refer to section J. When to Service
the Dry Type Air Cleaner in this guide
for additional information.
