Maintenance and Service
Diesel engine
7.1.1 Dry air filter
The diesel engine is equipped with one dry air filter, consisting of one main filter ele-
ment and one safety cartridge.
ATTENTION
Hazard of engine damages!
– During filter change make sure of utmost cleanliness.
– In addition, the diesel engine may never be operated without the filter elements.
The filter cartridge (main element) must be replaced:
– once a year (highly recommended) or,
– if the icon appears on the terminal,
– if the cartridge is damaged.
The safety cartridge can be accessed after dismantling the main element (1). It pro-
tects the diesel engine from dirt during maintenance being performed on the main ele-
ment or when the main element is damaged. The safety cartridge cannot be cleaned,
but it must be replaced in case of need, at the latest every two years.
The dry air filter is located above the hydraulic oil tank and is accessible from the
boarding platform. During installation and removal, make sure of utmost cleanliness
and correct fit of the cartridge. Damaged air filter cartridges must be immediately
exchanged for new and undamaged filter cartridges.
CAUTION
Falling hazard!
When working on the boarding platform always ensure that the safety rail on the
ladder is closed.
