Could any of you fellows tell me how to go about cleanin the filter element in my breather on my WD45? The one on my WD has a snap ring of sorts that lets you take out the bottom of it and clean the filter element. Near as I can tell on the WD45 there is know way to remove the mesh or inside bottom of the stack to get out the element. I thought about just cuttin the retainer disk in the bottom of the stack to remove the filter element and then repack it in and figure a way to repair or replace this disk. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Mr. Hossman The breather elements are definately removable. There are three seperate coils, each about 3 or 4 inches tall. They are usally bound to the sidewalls by rust. Carefully pry them loose and remove with needle nose pliers. I have gotten this far myself, but I wish to replace them with new material. I have had no success finding them. If you do, please send us an email.

Thanks for the responses fellers but the problem is on the WD45 (unlike the WD) I cant figure how to even remove the element, there is no retainer snap ring or anything like the WD has so the disk in the bottom of the stack that holds the element in place seems to be pressed into place , other words no easy take out like the straight WD air cleaner. Thanks again Hossman

Remove the entire element from the tractor. Soak the body, cup and cap in solvent for several days. Slosh up and down once or twice a day. Take a bottle brush to the central stack/tube.

Reoil the filter(steel wool type) element before reinstalling.
