1. Air filter: clean by air compressor opening blowing every 50 hours. Replace every 500 hours of operation or when the warning device is red to ensure that the air filter is clean and that it can be filtered in sufficient volume and without causing black smoke emission. When the warning device is red, it indicates that the filter element has been blocked by dirt. When replacing, open the filter cover, replace the filter element and reset the indicator by pressing the top button.

First warm up the set for 10 minutes before shutdown, find disposable filter on the diesel engine, unscrew it by belt wrench, before installing the new filter port, check that the closure ring is on the new filter, clean the contact surface, and fill the new filter with specified lubricant to avoid back pressure caused by air. And apply a little on the top of the closure ring, put the new filter back in place, screw it all in by hand, and then screw in 2/3 turns with great force.
