AIR CLEANER MAINTENANCE:
*
WARNING: NEVER OPERATE ENGINE WITH AIR
CLEANER ASSEMBLY OR AIR CLEANER CARTRIDGE
REMOVED. FIRE MAY RESULT.
A properly serviced air cleaner protects internal parts of the
engine from dirt and dust particles in the air. If air cleaner
instructions are not carefully followed, dirt and dust which
should be collected in the cleaner will be drawn into the
engine. These particles are highly abrasive and will cause the
piston rings and cylinder bore to wear quickly. As the rings and
cylinder bore become worn, these abrasive particles enter the
crankcase and contaminate the oil, forming an abrasive mixture
which will cause wear on all of the internal moving parts.
The air cleaner on every engine brought in for a check up
or repair should be examined and serviced. If the air cleaner
shows signs of neglect, show it to the customer before clean-
ing. Instruct the customer on proper care, to assure long
engine life.
Note: Replace air cleaner gaskets and mounting gaskets
that are worn or damaged, to prevent dirt and dust from
entering engine due to improper sealing. Replace bent
air cleaner mounting bracket if necessary.
SERVICE CANISTER AIR CLEANERS:
Clean the air filter element(s) with compressed air every 50
hours or every season, whichever occurs first. Replace the air filter
element(s) every 500 hours or if damaged (see Figure 1-8).

SERVICE DUAL ELEMENT AIR CLEANERS:
Remove and service foam pre-cleaner every 25 hours or every
season, whichever occurs first. Service cartridge every 50 hours
or every season, whichever occurs first (see Figure 1-9).
