7.6 Engine Air Cleaner

A. Cleaning and/or Replacing Air Cleaner Element

For any air cleaner, the operating environment dictates the air cleaner service periods. To make it convenient for you we have installed an "Air Cleaner Indicator" which is located just behind the air filter. The indicator window will turn red when it is time to service the air filter. Do not service the filter unless this indicator is red.

- NOTE -

In extremely dusty conditions it may be necessary to check the indicator daily to prevent engine damage.

1.Snap open the two clips securing the air cleaner cover to the air cleaner box. Remove the air cleaner cover, clean the duck bill vent of any dust and set the cover aside.

2.Remove the air cleaner element and inspect.

3.Clean or replace the element as recommended by the engine manufacturer.

4.Replace the air filter cover and be sure to snap the two clips closed.

5.Reset the air cleaner indicator by pushing the button on the end of the indicator. The indicator window should return to clear.
