WARN I N G
If CBRN exposure is suspected, personnel wearing protective equipment must handle all
air cleaner media. Contaminated filters must be handled using adequate precaution and
must be disposed of by trained personnel. Consult your CBRN Officer or CBRN NCO for
appropriate handling or disposal procedures. Failure to follow this warning may result in
injury or death to personnel.

Do not remove secondary air filter element until after the air filter housing is cleaned and
then only if it is being replaced. This will reduce the possibility of dirt entering the engine.

Replace secondary air filter element if: (A primary air filter element has been cleaned
)
three times since the secondary element has been replaced, (B) exhaust smoke is black
even after primary element has been replaced, or (C) the secondary element has been in
service for one year.
