CLEANING
Donaldson Radialseal™ Air Cleaner
A remote mounted Donaldson Radialseal™ air cleaner provides the air filtering function. The paper filter element slides over an outlet tube inside the air cleaner canister with radial sealing action, reducing the possibility of dust leaks due to improper filter installation. Intake design, internal baffling, and a dust ejection valve provide dust separation and automatic precleaning action. Daily or frequent servicing of the air cleaner is not required. Use the air filter restriction gauge on the air cleaner outlet to indicate when the air filter needs servicing
IMPORTANT: Use only Donaldson air filter ele ments for replacement (Donaldson P822686 or Walker

Inspect the paper element after every 100 hours of service and replace the element and safety filter yearly (or when dirty or damaged). More frequent replacement may be required when operating in extremely dusty conditions as indicated by the air filter restriction gauge. Service the air cleaner as fol- lows:
1.Release the top and bottom cover latches and remove the air cleaner cover. Wash the cover and dust ejection valve. Check that these com ponents are in good condition. The dust ejec- tion valve is subject to wear and deterioration and should be inspected carefully and replaced yearly or when damaged. The lips of the valve should close and fit together; any cracks, defor- mation, or wear in the valve is cause for re- placement.
2.Remove the filter element by pulling it out of the canister. There will be some initial resistance as the filter seal breaks loose and slides off of the outlet tube. Gently move the end of the filter up and down and side to side or twist to loosen the seal. Use gentle action to minimize the amount of dust dislodged as the filter is re- moved.
3.Discard the filter element if excessive air flow restriction has been indicated by the air filter restriction gauge and proceed to Step 6. Clean the filter element by gently tapping on a flat, hard surface. If excessive restriction still exists after cleaning the element, it should be re- placed.
