MAINTENANCE
SERVICE PROCEDURE
WHEN REQUIRED
CHECK, CLEAN, OR REPLACE AIR CLEANER ELEMENT
WARNING
If inspection, cleaning, or maintenance is carried out with the engine running, dirt will get into the engine and damage it.
Always stop the engine before carrying out these operations.
When using compressed air, there is danger that dirt may be blown around and cause serious injury.
Always use protective glasses, dust mask, and other protective equipment.
CHECKING
If air cleaner clogging caution lamp (1) on the maintenance monitor
flashes, clean the air cleaner element.
NOTICE
Do not clean the air cleaner element before the air cleaner clogging caution
lamp flashes.
If the air cleaner element is cleaned frequently before the air cleaner
clogging caution lamp flashes, the proper performance of the air cleaner is
not provided and the cleaning efficiency is lowered.
In addition, dust sticking to the cleaner element falls on the inner element
side while cleaning the element.
REMARK
A dust indicator (with 5-stage display) is installed to the side of the
air cleaner. This displays the condition of the clogging of the air
cleaner.
This makes it possible to check the clean status of the element and
the replacement time.
