1. Cleaning of engine air filter
The engine suction air is cleaned by a pre-filter and a dry paper filter of a dual-element type.
Faultless functioning of the filter is of utmost importance to the long lifespan of the engine.
The filter housing is located in the engine compartment. The filter housing cover is fastened with
locking brackets and the filter cartridges are under the cover (fig. 30). The outer filter cartridge
shall be replaced when blockage is indicated on IQAN- monitor or at least every 100 hours. The outer
cartridge can also be cleaned, but no more than five times. Open the locks on the rear filter
cover and twist the cartridge out of the housing. Be careful not to damage the paper. Do not
remove the inner cartridge unless it needs replacing.
The filter protects the suction channel against impu-
rities during service.
Blow dry compressed air (not over 5 bar) inside the
filter. Great care shall be taken not to damage the
filter cartridge or allow dust inside.
After cleaning, check the condition of the filter. Direct
a strong light from the inside. In case the outer filter
cartridge is broken, it shall be replaced. The
inner filter shall also be replaced as it has become
dirty. Otherwise the inner cartridge is replaced
after five filter services or every other year.
Clean the inside of the filter housing carefully before
removing the inner cartridge. When refitting the
filters, make sure that the gaskets are intact, the
mating surfaces clean and that the filter fits well.
When servicing the filter, check the condition and
attachment of the air hoses and the cleanliness of
the hose in the exhaust fume ejector.
Never run the engine without filters.
2. Checking of battery fluid level
Clean the battery housing carefully. Check that
the battery fluid level is 5-10 mm above the cells.
Make sure the cable lugs are properly tightened.
Remove any oxidisation with hot water. Coat the
cable lugs with copper or aluminium paste.
3. Cleaning of breather on the hydraulic tank
Clean the filter and the surrounding area care-
fully (fig. 32).
