Air filter kit (outer/inner) RD452-42270+42280 Kubota, aftermarket

For the Kubota excavators and tractors: air filter kit (outer/inner) RD452-42270+42280, an aftermarket part. This kit contains both the primary (outer) and the safety (inner) element.

A kit containing both the outer and inner elements suits services where both must be renewed at once, for example after long work in very dusty conditions or after the housing has been opened and cleaned. The kit elements match each other and the housing. Check the housing seal and cover too, since a cracked cover lets dust bypass the filter. Air filter servicing is the cheapest protection that directly extends engine life. The kit comes new, and both elements are taken out of their packaging only at fitting.

Fitting

After fitting, check the hose clamps and joints in the intake: even a small leak after the filter lets unfiltered air go straight into the engine. Reset the restriction indicator if fitted. Record the date and engine hours of the change in the service log.
