Stop engine.
NOTICE
−
Do not run air compressor
without air cleaner or with dirty element.
Compressor damage caused by using a
damaged element is not covered by the
warranty.
The air cleaner primary element can
be cleaned but the dirt holding capac-
ity of the filter is reduced with each
cleaning. The chance of dirt reaching
the clean side of the filter while clean-
ing and the possibility of filter damage
makes cleaning a risk. Consider the
risk of unwarrantable equipment
damage when determining whether
to clean or replace the primary ele-
ment.
NOTICE
−
If you decide to clean the pri-
mary element, we strongly recommend
installing an optional safety element to
provide additional engine protection.
Never clean a safety element.
Replace
the safety element after servicing the pri-
mary element three times.
