In dusty areas, the element should be replaced more frequently than the recommended interval.

If dirt gets through into the engine, excessive engine wear and possibly engine damage will occur.
NOTICE
Use only the recommended air cleaner element (Kawasaki part number 11013-0041). Using another air cleaner element will wear the engine prematurely or lower the engine performance.
