How to question

[DonWorrell]

I own a 3325. I have put 10 hours on it in heavy weeds and brush.

I have noticed the air breather stack sticking down through the top of the hood is swirling with dust and chaft.

Here is my question; "How do you clean it?" I looked in the manual and it doesn't give instruction at least where I can find them.

The stack is a black tube about 3" in diameter, with a clear plastic or glass bowl on top covered by a black lid. Now the lid does have a finger screw on the top.

I would assume it comes apart by taking off the top screw and lid. But I don't want to get something apart and not be able to get it back together. My dealer is 20 miles away as the crow flies but 40 miles by roads so if I can find the answer without going to them I would really like that.

Anyone know how to clean this? I will go to my dealer if I need to.

That is exactly how you take it apart to clean... The stack is a slip fit into the top of your air cleaner, couple clips inside that help hold it in place. I give mine a a slight twist/wiggle and then pull straight up to remove stack and pre-filter when I need to open the hood.

as stated, that is exactly how it comes apart. The dust bowl is just a place to let the really big stuff settle out before running into the main air filter.
