11.3.1 Replacing and cleaning the air ﬁ lter

Procedure:

If present, remove the rear side panel of the hydraulic power unit, in that the ¿ xing clip and

the side panel are removed.

1. Unscrew both bolts from the air ¿ lter cover and remove the cover.

2. Remove the foam air ¿ lter insert from the cover.

3. Take the paper air ¿ lter insert from the air ¿ lter housing.

4. Check both air ¿ lter inserts and replace if damaged. The paper air ¿ lter insert must always

be replaced at planned intervals.

5. Clean the air ¿ lter inserts if reusing them.

Paper air ﬁ lter insert: Tap out the paper air ¿ lter insert a few times on a hard surface to

remove dirt or blow compressed air [not more than 207 kPa (2.1 kg/cm )] from the air ¿ lter

housing side through the ¿ lter insert. Never attempt to brush out dirt because it would be

pressed in by the bristles. Replace the paper air ¿ lter insert if it is exceedingly dirty.

Foam air ﬁ lter insert: Clean in warm soapy water, rinse and allow to dry thoroughly.

Or clean in non-À ammable solvent and let dry. Do not introduce any oil to the foam air

¿ lter insert.

6. Wipe away dirt from the inside of the air ¿ lter housing with a damp cloth. Ensure that dirt

does not penetrate the air duct leading to the carburettor.

7. Then re-¿ t the ¿ lter.

NOTE:

Keeping the air ¿ lter in good condition is extremely important. Penetrating

dirt leads to damage and wear in the engine in case of incorrect installation,

incorrect damage or unsuitable ¿ lter inserts.

Always keep the air ¿ lter insert clean.
