Servicing the Air Cleaner

Primary Filter: Replace every 200 operating hours.

operating conditions are extremely dusty or sandy.
Removing the Filters

levers to the neutral locked position and set
the parking brake.
2. Stop the engine, remove the key, and wait for
all moving parts to stop before leaving the
operating position.
3. Release the latches on the air cleaner and pull
the air cleaner cover off of the air cleaner body

light on the outside of the filter. Holes in the
filter will appear as bright spots. If the filter
is damaged discard it.
