Air Filter

If the engine seems weak or runs unevenly, the air filter may be clogged. If running with a dirty air filter, the spark plugs can become fouled.

For this reason, it is important to replace the air filter regularly (see the heading Maintenance Schedule for the proper service interval).

Kohler Engine - 20 HP

The standard engine is not equipped with a prefilter. As an option, a prefilter can be installed on the inside of the air filter cover.

1.Loosen the two retaining knobs and remove the cover. If the engine has a prefilter, it is mounted on the inside of the cover.

2.Clean the area around the filter element to prevent debris from getting into the engine when the element is removed.

WARNING!

The engine and the exhaust system become very hot during operation. Risk for burns if touched.

Allow engine and exhaust system to cool at least two (2) minutes.
