Engine Maintenance
Servicing the Air Cleaner
Service Interval: Before each use or daily—Check the air
cleaner for dirty, loose or damaged parts.
Every 50 hours—Service the air-cleaner paper element
(more often under extremely dusty, dirty conditions).
Every 100 hours—Replace the air-cleaner paper
element (more often under extremely dusty, dirty
conditions).
This engine is equipped with a replaceable, high-density paper
air-cleaner element. Check the air cleaner daily or before
starting the engine. Check for a buildup of dirt and debris
around the air-cleaner system. Keep this area clean. Also,
check for loose or damaged components. Replace all bent or
damaged air-cleaner components.
Note:
Operating the engine with loose or damaged
air-cleaner components could allow unfiltered air into the
engine, causing premature wear and failure.
1. Rotate the latches outward.
2. Remove the cover to access the air-cleaner element
(
Figure 27 ).
3. Remove the element, and gently tap the element to
dislodge dirt.
Note:
Do not wash the paper element or use
pressurized air, as this will damage the element.
Note:
Replace a dirty, bent, or damaged element.
Handle the new element carefully; do not use if the
sealing surfaces are bent or damaged.
4. Clean the air-cleaner base as required and check the
condition.
5. Install the paper element onto the air-cleaner base.
6. Install the cover and secure it with the latches ( Figure
27 ).
