More Information
Summary:An air intake system (100) for a work vehicle may generally include an intake duct (102) defining a passageway (110) for directing air in a flow direction through the system. The duct (102) may also include a pre-cleaner slot (140) defined between inner and outer surfaces of the duct (102) and a support ledge (150) extending circumferentially around at least a portion of an inner perimeter of the duct (102). The system may also include a pre-cleaner (120) configured to be installed within the intake duct (102) by inserting the pre-cleaner (120) through the pre-cleaner slot (140) in a direction extending generally perpendicular to the flow direction. In addition, the air intake system (100) may include a cover (144) configured to be coupled to the intake duct (102) such that the cover (144) extends over the pre-cleaner slot (140) when the pre-cleaner (120) is installed within the intake duct (102).
