b. AVOID DISLODGING DUST FROM THE FILTER.
Gently pull the filter off the outlet tube and out of the
housing. Avoid knocking the filter against the
housing.
c. Carefully remove the safety element from the
housing.
2. Inspect all parts of the intake system and air cleaner. Be
sure to clean the sealing surface of the outlet tube and
the inside of the outlet tube.
3. Install the new elements into the air cleaner body as
follows:
a. INSPECT THE FILTER FOR DAMAGE. Always
look for filter damage, even if a new filter element is
being installed. Pay special attention to the inside of
the open end (sealing area). Do not install a
damaged filter.
b. INSERT THE FILTER PROPERLY. The seal area is
on the inside of the open end of the primary filter. A
new filter has a dry lubricant to aid installation. The
critical sealing area will stretch slightly, adjust itself
and distribute the sealing pressure evenly. To
complete a tight seal, apply pressure at the outer
rim of the filter, not the flexible center. No cover
pressure is required to hold the seal.
4. Install the cover on the air cleaner body with the two
arrows pointing up. Secure the cover with the latches.
5. Check all connections and ducts for an air tight fit. Make
sure that all clamps, bolts, and connections are tight.
Check for holes in piping. Leaks in the air intake system
may send dust directly to the engine.
Element Cleaning
It is not recommended that either filter elements be cleaned.
Cummins and most other manufacturers will not warrant a
cleaned air filter.
