and pull filter straight out and slightly up
so filter clears edges of housing.

ENGINE AIR CLEANER MAINTENANCE —
TIER 4 ENGINE
See Figure 7-10 for the following procedure.
The air cleaner is mounted and fastened to the engine air
intake (6) with a rubber elbow reducer (5), clamps (3), tubes
(2) and reducer (4). Servicing the air cleaner is an important
function because:
• Clogged air cleaner filters will prevent adequate air flow
to the engine, causing poor starting and increased
exhaust emissions.
• An improperly installed or damaged air cleaner can
allow dirty air to be drawn directly into the engine.
Either condition can cause engine damage.
Inspection
To maintain engine protection and filter service life, inspect
the following areas at regular intervals:
Daily
Check service indicator (8) with engine running. The
indicator gives a visual indication when it is time to replace
the filters.
• A yellow flag in the indicator window (8a) extends as the
filters become plugged. Replace filters when the
yellow indicator reaches the red zone at the end of
the indicator.
• The yellow flag remains locked in place after the engine
is stopped. When the filters are replaced, push button
(8b) in to reset the indicator.
Weekly
1. Inspect rubber reducers (4 and 5) between air cleaner
and engine for cracks or other damage which might
allow unfiltered air to enter the engine. Replace worn or
damaged parts.
2. Check housing (1e) for dents or other damage that may
allow unfiltered air to enter engine. Replace housing if
damaged.
3. Check for loose clamps (3). Tighten if necessary.
4. Inspect engine intake (6) for obstructions. Clean as
required.
