MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Filter Systems
Air Box Drain
Periodically check the air box drain tube located on the bottom rear of
the air box. Empty the drain tube if necessary.
Breather Filter
Always inspect and replace the breather filter at the intervals outlined
in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 70.
1. Remove the clamps and pull the
breather filter (1) out of the
hoses.
NOTE: It’s not necessary to
remove the lower hose
from the engine.
2. Inspect the filter for debris.
Blow gently through the filter in
the direction of the arrow to
check for clogging. Replace as
needed.
3. Check the hoses for cracks, deterioration, abrasion, or leaks.
Replace as needed.
4. Reinstall the filter and clamps with the arrow pointing toward the
air box.
NOTE: The breather filter is intended to be used with the air box
pre-filter in place. Without the pre-filter, the breather filter
can clog quickly.
CAUTION
Operating the vehicle without both the pre-filter and breather filter
can cause engine damage. Always reinstall both filters when
they’ve been removed for service.
