Air Cleaner (Daily)
The Kohler 27 hp and 28 hp EFI engines are equipped with a
replaceable, high-density paper air cleaner element. Most are
also equipped with an oiled-foam precleaner which surrounds
the paper element.
Check the air cleaner daily or before starting the engine. Check
for and correct heavy buildup of dirt and debris along with loose
or damaged components.
NOTE
Operating the engine with loose or
damaged air cleaner components
could allow unfiltered air into the
engine causing premature wear and
failure.
Precleaner Service
If so equipped, wash and re-oil the precleaner every 25 hours of
operation (more often under extremely dusty or dirty conditions).
To service the precleaner perform the following steps, refer to
