B1 - DRY AIR FILTER CARTRIDGE
CHECK - CLEAN
In case of use in a heavily dust laden atmosphere, there are pre-filtration cartridges (See FILTERS CARTRIDGES AND
BELTS in SECTION 3 - MAINTENANCE). Also, the checking and cleaning of the cartridge must be increased.
- For the disassembly and reassembly of the cartridge, see D3 - DRY AIR FILTER CARTRIDGE in SECTION 3 -
MAINTENANCE.
- Clean the filter cartridge using a compressed air jet (Max. pressure 43 psi) directed from the top to the bottom and from
the inside towards the outside at a minimum distance of 1.5 inches from the cartridge wall.
- Cleaning is completed when there is no more dust on the cartridge.
- Clean the cartridge seal surfaces with a damp, clean lint-free cloth and grease with a silicone lubricant.
B2 - RADIATOR CORE
CLEAN
- Open the I.C. engine compartment.
In order to prevent the radiator becoming clogged, clean the radiator with a compressed air jet directed from inside to
outside. This is the only way to clean the core of debris.
B - EVERY 50 HOURS SERVICE
Carry out the operations described previously as well as the following operations.
If the clogging indicator light comes on, this operation must be carried out as quickly as possible
(1 hour maximum). The cartridge must not be cleaned more than seven times, after which the
cartridge must be changed.
IMPORTANT
Respect the safety distance of 1.5 inches between the air jet and the cartridge to avoid tearing or
making a hole in the cartridge. The cartridge must not be blown anywhere near the air filter box.
Never clean the cartridge by tapping it against a hard surface.
IMPORTANT
Do not clean the dry air filter cartridge by washing it in liquid. Do not clean by any means the
safety cartridge located inside the filter cartridge, change it for a new one if it is dirty or damaged.
IMPORTANT
When handling straw, grain or cereal, clean the radiator core daily.
IMPORTANT
Use proper eye and face protection when handling compressed air!
