General Maintenance
To change elements:
1. Pull the air cleaner cover lock (Figure 69, 1) OUT, turn the air
cleaner cover (2) counter-clockwise and remove cover from air
cleaner canister (3).
Figure 69
2. Remove the primary element (Figure 70, 1). Inspect element for
damage. Damaged elements should not be reused.
3. Thoroughly clean the interior of the air filter canister (Figure 70, 2)
and vacuator valve (3).
4. If replacing the inner safety element (Figure 70, 4) at this time,
carefully slide the inner safety element out. Always discard this ele-
ment and replace with a new element.
5. Slide the new primary element over the inner safety element mak-
ing sure the sealing edge is flush with the base of the air cleaner.
IMPORTANT! DO NOT apply any type of petroleum product to the sealing
surface of the filter in an attempt to get a more positive seal. This will cause
sealing surface damage and allow dirt to by-pass the filter. Use liquid
dishwashing soap (Ivory, Dawn, etc.) on the seal of the filter only.
6. Position canister cover (Figure 70, 5) in place, turn clockwise to
lock into position and secure in place by pushing the air cleaner
cover lock (6) all the way in.
