SERVICE PROCEDURE
CLEAN AIR CONDITIONER AIR FILTER (FRESH/RECIRC FILTER)
Clean the air conditioner air filter if it becomes clogged or if there is dirt or oil stuck to it.
In places where there is a lot of dust, clean the air filter once a week. In addition, clean the air conditioner air filter
at the same time, when cleaning the engine air cleaner.
1.
Open inspection cover (1) on top of the hood, then remove
pressure air filter (2).
2. Open inspection cover (3) under the front panel and pull up
recirculation air filter (4) to remove it.
3.
Clean filters (2) and (4) with compressed air. If there is oil stuck
to the filter, or it is extremely dirty, wash it in a neutral agent.
After washing it, dry it completely before installing it again.
REMARK
If the filters cannot be cleaned with air or in water, replace them
with new ones.
CHECK AND ADJUST AIR CONDITIONER
CHECK TENSION OF COMPRESSOR BELT
If the belt is loose, it will slip and the cooling effect will be reduced.
From time to time, press a point midway between the drive pulley
and compressor pulley with your finger (approx. 58.8 N {6 kg}) and
check that the tension is 15 to 18 mm (0.6 to 0.7 in).
When the belt is new, there will be initial elongation, so always
adjust again after 2 or 3 days.
REMARK
If the V-belt has stretched and there is no more allowance for
adjustment, replace the V-belt.
