blower housing. Pull the cooler away from the blower
housing. Clean both sides of the cooler with a brush as
shown in Figures 17 and 18, or with compressed air.
After cleaning, reattach the oil cooler to the lower

Air Cleaners
These engines use a heavy-duty style air cleaner (see
Figure 19) or a flat air cleaner (see Figure 23). These
systems are CARB/EPA certified and the components
should not be altered or modified in any way.
NOTE: Lift or move this engine using the lifting
strap and lifting point shown in Figure 1.
DO NOT lift the engine by the air cleaner.
Heavy-Duty Air Cleaner
The heavy-duty air cleaner consists of a cylindrical
housing mounted to the carburetor and intake
manifold. The housing contains a paper element and
inner element, designed for longer service intervals.
