5.7.4 Air filter check/cleaning/replacement (4)<br />

To ensure a long operating life for a modern, turbo‐charged engine,<br />

maintaining the good condition of the air filter is essential.<br />

► Turn off the engine.<br />

Varoitus! Varning! Warning!<br />

Never open the air filter while the engine is running!<br />

► Remove the filter cover fasteners and the cover.<br />

► Remove the filter element (3) by rotating and pulling it out from the case.<br />

Huomaa! Notera! Note!<br />

Do not remove the safety element (2) from its place.<br />

► Clean the inside of the cover (4) and the filter element case (1) by wiping.<br />

► Check the filter element (3) and seals. If the element looks tidy and is in good<br />

condition, you can clean off the loose dust and dirt by lightly knocking on it.<br />

If the element is dirty or damaged, it must definitely be replaced.<br />

► Clean and check the dust pocket (5). If the dust pocket is damaged or does<br />

not close properly, replace it with a new one.<br />

Info!<br />

If the filter element is damaged, the safety element must also be<br />

replaced.<br />

Otherwise, check the condition of the safety element, but do not remove<br />

it if it is in working order.<br />

Filter manufacturers do not recommend cleaning the filter element with<br />

compressed air, since compressed air can easily tear the fibres of the filter<br />

paper and ruin a good filter element without leaving a visual indication of<br />

this.<br />

► If you must use compressed air, use very low pressure and direct the air from<br />

the inside of the filter outwards. Limit air pressure to 2–3 bar, and do not<br />

press the air nozzle against the filter paper or too close to it.<br />

► Inspect the condition of the filter element’s rubber seals.<br />

► Install the filter element and protective cover in the reverse order.<br />

Info!<br />

The safety element must be replaced no later than when the main<br />

element has been cleaned five times.<br />

Replace the safety element (2) when necessary:<br />

► By rotating and pulling it out.<br />

► Clean the case.<br />

► Press a new element in by rotating it.<br />
