MAINTENANCE
Air Pre-Filter
Always clean the pre-filter
at the intervals outlined in
the Periodic Maintenance
Chart beginning on page
78. Service the pre-filter
more frequently if the
vehicle is operated in wet
or dusty conditions or at
high engine RPM for
extended periods.
The intake air pre-filter is
located in the access panel
on the left rear ROPS /
OPS post. The pre-filter
traps larger particles
before the air reaches the
main engine air filter.
Removal
1. Press the latch
towards the front of
the vehicle to remove
the prefilter.
2. Clean debris from the
pre-filter and inspect
for damage. If any
damage is found, replace the pre-filter assembly.
3. DO NOT use compressed
air to clean the pre-filter
open. Use a damp cloth
and clean the inside of the
pre-filter opening.
Installation
1. Insert the two tabs on the
pre-filter assembly into
the side frame. Rotate the
pre-filter into the frame
and make sure the latch
securely retains the pre-filter to it’s original location.
Cleaning Intake Water Drain Valve
1. Raise the cargo box.
2. An air intake water drain
valve is located below
the pre-filter that should
be inspected and clean at
the same time the pre-fil-
ter is cleaned.
3. Remove dirt and debris
from the valve and
squeeze the valve to
make sure it is not
plugged. If any damage
is found, replace the drain valve.
