ENGINE AIR INTAKE
LOCATION–
The engine air intake filter is accessed by open-
ing the door on the front of the engine compartment (fig. 89-1).
REMOVAL–
The engine air intake filter element should only
be removed if it is going to be replaced. After loosening the air
cleaner clamp and removing the end cap, carefully remove the filter
so as to not knock any dust off the filter and into the air intake pas-
sage. The secondary filter does not need to be replaced if the pri-
mary is intact.
REPLACEMENT–
Your sprayer is equipped with a Filter Minder ® to notify you of filter element effi-
ciency. Follow its guidelines for servicing (see below). At appropriate service time, install the new element
carefully to ensure proper sealing.
CLEANING–
It is not recommended to clean the air intake filter element. However, a clean damp cloth
should be used to wipe away dust and foreign material from the air cleaner housing.
NOTE:
Do not tap filter to remove dust. Engine damage may occur due
to crushed filter caused by tapping. If Filter Minder
®
indicates
restriction, remove old filter, discard and install new filter only.
FILTER MINDER®
LOCATION–
The Filter Minder® is an air restriction monitoring system
that progressively and constantly indicates how much air filter capacity re-
mains. It is mounted on the foamer bracket (fig. 89-2). Check its reading daily.
SERVICE–
Service the air cleaner when the Filter Minder® reads
20” (80% of dirt holding capacity).
FIG 89-2
NOTE:
Service the air cleaner before the
yellow indicator reaches the red line of
the Filter Minder
®
.
