As the air lter becomes more clogged, the air pressure
increases, causing the indicator to illuminate. When
this occurs, the air lter must be cleaned or replaced as
follows:
1. Open clamps securing the cover on the lter
housing, then remove the cover.
2. Remove the lter cartridge.
3. Replace with the new lter cartridge.
4. Reinstall cover and secure with the clamps.
5. Reset the lter indicator by pressing button on top of
the indicator.
Engine Drive Belt
The engine drive belt should be replaced whenever the
belt appears frayed or cracked. This belt drives the
alternator and the cooling fan. Tension on the belt is
maintained by a spring-loaded tensioner.
To replace the belt proceed as follows:
Engine must be turned off and the
wheels blocked to prevent motion when servicing the
machine.
NOTE: The spring-loaded belt tensioner must be
pivoted away from the drive belt. Pivoting
in the wrong direction can damage the
tensioner.
To replace the belt :
1. Turn off engine and block the wheels to prevent
movement while working on the machine.
2. Using a 3/8-inch square drive, lift the tensioner
to relieve pressure on the belt. Remove the belt.
(Figure 5-5)
3. Using a 3/8-inch square drive, lift the tensioner and
hold.
4. Install the new drive belt.
5. Release the tensioner, ensuring it is properly
pressing against the belt.
