Case 446 - Air Cleaner Maintenance; Cleaning and Replacing the Element

AIR CLEANER
Remove and clean element after
each 25 hours or weekly . I nstall a
new element every
500 hours or yearly
or when loss of power is noticeable.
Tap element lightly on a flat sur-
face
to cause the loose dirt to fall off .
Handle
the element with care to avoid
damage.
~ __ WING NUT
~~-
Replace the element with a new
one
if dirt does not drop off easily or
if it is damaged. When replacing the
element,
be sure it fits snugly around
the inside edge
of the air cleaner base.
Then replace the cover and tighten the
wing nut finger tight .
An optional, washable, precleaner
is available from your J I Case dealer
and
will extend the life of the air
cleaner element.
