Air filter removal and replacement
5
Replacing a front air filter
Complete the following steps to mount the new air filter on the air intake.
1. Orient the new filter over the five mounting holes using the screws as guides.
The mounting is asymmetric, so the holes match up only one way.
2. Using the #2 Phillips screwdriver, initiate the threads, two turns per screw, until all five are
started.
3. Tighten all five screws, one at a time.
Do not overtighten the screws as this will compromise the frame, admitting unfiltered air.
Replacing the side air filter
The side air filter is used with the two-post mid-mount rack kit. Use this illustration as a reference.
