Air Filter
The air filter housing is at the front of the engine compartment. The air filter is accessed and changed by
removing the panel on the end (opposite the air hose).
Use an approved Jinma 284 Air Filter. These can be
purchased at Rocky Mountain Farm Pros. (Air Filter does
NOT crossover to NAPA®/Carquest® etc.)
The short flexible tube under the air filter housing is an
opening to remove accumulated grit. When the engine is
not running, it can be opened by squeezing and will let
grit and dust fall out. Check this periodically between air
filter changes. Check air filter every 50 hours of
operation. Change the air filter no less than every
250/500/1,000 hours of operation even if it seems clean.
Cooling System
Water
Is using boiled hard water an acceptable approach?
No! Boiling water or adding caustic soda is not a good
approach in the US. Distilled water best but you can also use other soft water. Most “city” water in the Denver
area is acceptable; be careful about well water as it may contain minerals and particles.
The cooling system holds about 2 gallons of liquid (water
plus antifreeze).
Anti-Freeze
