Servicing the Paper Element
1. Gently tap the paper 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.
2. Clean the air-cleaner base as required, and
check the condition.
Installing the Air Cleaner
1. Install the foam element over the paper element.
Note:
Ensure that you do not damage the
elements.
2. Align the holes of the filter into the manifold
ports.
3. Rotate the filter down into the chamber and fully
seat it against the manifold (

the blade-control switch (PTO), and engage the
parking brake.
2. Shut off the engine, remove the key, and wait
for all moving parts to stop before leaving the
operating position.
3. Release the latches on the air cleaner and pull
the air-cleaner cover off the air-cleaner body
