IMPORTANT: ALWAYS REPLACE primary air cleaner element when air restriction indicator shows a vacuum of 625 mm (25 in.) H₂O, is torn, or visibly dirty.

NOTE: This procedure applies to John Deere 2-stage radial seal air cleaner kits. Refer to manufacturers' instructions for servicing air cleaners not supplied by John Deere.

1. Unlatch and remove dust cap/cover (A) of air cleaner.

2. Move end of filter (B) back and forth gently to break seal.

3. Pull filter (B) off outlet tube and out of housing.

4. Thoroughly clean all dirt from inside housing and from outlet bore.

5. IMPORTANT: Remove secondary (safety) element (C) ONLY for replacement. DO NOT attempt to clean, wash, or reuse secondary element. Replacement of secondary element is usually necessary ONLY when primary element has a hole in it.

   To replace secondary element (C), pull filter element out gently. Immediately replace secondary element with new element to prevent dust from entering air intake system.

6. Install new primary filter element. Apply pressure by hand at outer rim of filter.

7. IMPORTANT: Do NOT use latches on cover to force filter into air cleaner. Using cover to force filter will damage cleaner housing.

   Close housing with dust unloader valve aimed down and latch latches.

8. IMPORTANT: Whenever the air cleaner has been serviced or cover has been removed, ALWAYS fully depress the air restriction indicator reset button (if equipped) to assure accurate readings.

   If equipped, fully depress air restriction indicator reset button and release to reset indicator.
