8 - FORM NO. 56043093 / Captor™ 4300, 4800, 5400ENGINE AIR FILTERThe engine Air Filter (8) is located in the engine compartment. Check the air mechanical vacuum filter Service Indicator (46) before each useof the machine. Do not service the air filter unless the indicator is lit (red).CAUTION!When servicing the engine air filter elements, use extreme caution to prevent dust and dirt from entering the engine.The engine air filter contains a primary (outer) and a safety (inner) filter element. The primary element may be cleaned twice before beingreplaced. Replace the safety element every third time that the primary element is serviced. Never try to clean the safety element. To cleanthe primary filter element, remove the cover from the dust cup end of the canister and pull out the primary element. Clean the element withcompressed air (maximum pressure 100 PSI) or wash it with water (maximum pressure 40 PSI). Do not put the element back into the canisteruntil it is completely dry.Special Service Note: Inspect the complete air intake system for proper routing (kinks & restrictions) and sound tight connections. Themechanic should run their hand around the air intake hoses to check for any cracks and holes that will allow non-filtered air to enter theengine that will severely shorten the engine’s useful life.ENGINE MAINTENANCE (150 HOURS)At 150 hour intervals it is recommended that the following service be performed: Change oil and filter, clean and inspect spark plugs, check allengine belts condition and adjustment, check battery charge and level, check cooling system hoses and clamps and check general conditionand performance of engine.Note: Reference the separately supplied PSI GM Power Train Products Operation and Maintenance manual for more detailed service data.PSI manual number is 3610000.SPECIAL LIQUID PROPANE FUEL SYSTEM MAINTENANCE ON THE GM 1.6L ENGINEEvery 150 hours inspect and drain any oil build up from the LP fuel system electronic pressure regulator (EPR). During the course of normaloperation oils or “heavy ends” may build inside the chambers of the propane regulator. These oils and heavy ends may be a result of poor fuelquality, contamination of the fuel supply chain, or regional variation in the make up of the fuel. If the build up of the oil is significant this canaffect the function of the fuel control system. Note: Reference the Tier 2 PSI 1.6l PFI certified engine service manual form # PSI1P6LPFI-A, andfollow the procedure to drain the EPR regulator.HYDRAULIC OILWARNING! FIGURE 1To avoid hydraulic oil injection or injury, always wear appropriate clothing and eye protection whenworking with or near hydraulic system.Check the Hydraulic Oil Level. Remove the Right Engine Access Panel (37) and look at the gaugeon the side of the reservoir. If the oil level is below the minimum level, add 10W30 motor oil until thegauge is 3/4 full. Do not fill above maximum. Change the oil if major contamination from a mechanicalfailure occurs. SERVICE NOTE: Remove the small access panel (49) directly above the reservoir toadd oil. This panel is held on by (2) wing nuts on the underside of the panel. Only filtered oil shouldbe added.IMPORTANT!This machine is equipped with an indicator light which lights if the “In Tank” oil filter requireschanging. Remove filter element from the filter cup and replace with new filter. Hydraulic filter isfound on top of the Hydraulic Reservoir (36).Change the Hydraulic “Charge” Oil Filter (35).Note: Oil should be warm, cold oil is thicker and may cause the light to come on intermittently until itwarms up.revised 7/08MAINTENANCE
