Figure 4-9 Air Cleaner Components
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.
Air Cleaner Service
Replace the paper element at the intervals indicated in
the service schedule. See Section 4.1.2 for the service
schedule. See Figure 4-9 for the air cleaner
components.
1. Loosen the two cover retaining knobs and remove
the cover.
2. Remove the paper element.
3. Do not wash the paper element or use pressurized
air, as this will damage the element. Replace a
dirty, bent, or damaged element. Handle new
elements carefully; do not use if the sealing
surfaces are bent or damaged.
4. 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 for
damage or improper fit. Replace all damaged air
cleaner components.
Note: If any loose dirt or debris fell on the air cleaner
base when the element was removed, carefully
remove it and wipe the base clean. Be careful that
none of it drops into the intake throat.
5. Reinstall the paper element onto the air cleaner
base. Make sure the element is flat and properly
seated.
6. Install the air cleaner cover and secure with the two
retaining knobs.
7. When element replacement is necessary, order
genuine Kohler parts.
