NOTE: Operating the engine with damaged or

loose components could allow unfiltered

air into the engine causing premature

wear and failure.

4. Reinstall the paper element, element cover and

wing nut. Tighten the cover nut securely to be sure

the element is sealed tightly against the element

cover and base plate.

5. If so equipped, install the precleaner (washed and

oiled) over paper element.

6. Install air cleaner cover and wing nut. Tighten wing

nut until it is snug against cover. Do not

overtighten.

7. When air cleaner element replacement is

necessary always use genuine Kohler parts.

Clean Air Intake/Cooling Areas

To ensure proper cooling, make sure the grass screen,

cooling fins, and other external surfaces of the engine

are kept clean 

at all times

.

Every 

50 hours

 of operation (more often under

extremely dusty, dirty conditions), remove the blower

housing and other cooling shrouds. Clean the cooling

fins and external surfaces as necessary. Make sure the

cooling shrouds are reinstalled.

NOTE: Operating the engine with a blocked grass

screen, dirty or plugged cooling fins, and/or

cooling shrouds removed, will cause engine

damage due to overheating.

Check Spark Plug

Every 

200 hours

 of operation, remove the spark plug,

check its condition, and reset the gap or replace with a

new plug as necessary.

1. Before removing the spark plug, clean the area

around the base of the plug to keep dirt and debris

out of the engine.

2. Remove the plug and check its condition.

Replace the plug if worn or reuse is questionable.

NOTE: Do not clean the spark plug in a machine

using abrasive grit. Some grit could

remain in the spark plug and enter the

engine causing extensive wear and

damage.

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.

Service Precleaner

Wash and reoil the precleaner every 

25 hours

 of

operation, (more often under extremely dusty or dirty

conditions).

1. Remove the wing nut and air cleaner cover.

2. Remove the precleaner from the paper element. It

is not necessary to remove element cover or

paper element.

3. Wash the precleaner in warm water with

detergent. Rinse the precleaner thoroughly until all

traces of detergent are eliminated. Squeeze out

excess water (do not wring). Allow the precleaner

to air dry.

4. Saturate the precleaner with new engine oil.

Squeeze out all excess oil.

5. Reinstall the precleaner over the paper element.

6. When precleaner replacement is necessary

always use genuine Kohler parts.

Service Paper Element

Every 

100 hours

 of operation (more often under

extremely dusty or dirty conditions), replace the paper

element.

1. Remove the precleaner (if so equipped) element

cover and paper element.

2. Do not wash the paper element or 

use

pressurized air

, as this will damage the element.

Replace a dirty, bent, or damaged element with a

genuine Kohler element. Handle new elements

carefully; do not use if the sealing surfaces are

bent or damaged.

3. When servicing the air cleaner, check the air

cleaner base. Make sure it is secured and not

bent or damaged. Also check the element cover,

seals and breather tube for damage or improper

fit. Replace all damaged air cleaner components.
