indicator comes on when the engine is

EJU34300Checking the air filter element
The air filter element should be checked every
12 months or every 100 hours of operation.
To check the air filter element:
(1) Remove the seats. (See page 24 for seat
removal and installation procedures.)
(2) Remove the air filter case cover screws,
slide the locks open, and then remove the
air filter case cover.
(3) Remove the air filter element and check it
for dirt and oil. Replace the air filter ele-ment if there is any oil buildup, or every 2
years or every 200 hours of operation.
(4) Install the air filter element in the air filter
case, and then install the air filter case
cover.
(5) Install the seats.
CAUTION:
ECJ00200
Make sure that the air filter element is in-
stalled in the air filter case properly.
Do not start the engine with the air filter
element removed, otherwise the pistons
and cylinders could be damaged.
If cleaning the air filter element, use cold
or lukewarm water and let it air dry com-
pletely. Do not use detergent or solvent
to clean the air filter element, or dry it
with hot or compressed air, otherwise it
could be damaged.
