Service Precleaner and Air Cleaner Element
This engine is equipped with a replaceable, high density paper air cleaner element. All engines are also equipped
with an oiled, foam precleaner which covers the paper element. See Figure 8.
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.

conditions).

3. Wash the precleaner in warm water with detergent.
Rinse the precleaner thoroughly until all traces of
detergent are eliminated. Squeeze out excess

Squeeze out all excess oil.
5. Reinstall the precleaner over the paper element.

Service Paper Element
Every 100 hours of operation (more often under
extremely dusty or dirty conditions), replace the paper
element.
1. Remove the air cleaner cover. (See “Service
Precleaner,” step 1.)
2. Remove the precleaner from the paper element.
3. Remove the air cleaner cover ring, wing nut,
washer, and element cover with grommet. Pull the
element cover with grommet off. Remove paper

4. Replace a dirty, bent, or damaged element with a
genuine Kohler element. Do not wash the paper
element or use pressurized air , as this will
damage the element. Handle new elements
carefully; do not use if the sealing surfaces are
bent or damaged.
