Paper Element

Figure 21. Removing Elements.

3. After the paper element is removed, check the

condition of the inner element. It should be

replaced whenever it appears dirty, typically

every other time the paper element is replaced or

every 600 hours. Clean the area around the base

of the inner element before removing it, so dirt

does not get into the engine.

4. Do not wash the paper element and inner

element or use compressed air, this will damage

the elements. Replace dirty, bent or damaged

elements with new genuine Kohler elements as

required. Handle the new elements carefully; do

not use if the sealing surfaces are bent or

damaged.

5. Check all parts for wear, cracks, or damage, and

make sure ejector area is clean. See Figure 22.

Replace any damaged components.
