Why Air Filter Maintenance Matters
A QSB6.7 at full load inhales over 500 CFM. A restricted filter forces the turbo harder, raising EGTs. A failed filter allows silica dust into cylinders, sanding rings and liners. A $150 filter prevents a $15,000 rebuild.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this fit my Bobcat with QSB6.7?
A: If your Bobcat uses the Direct Flow 1200 housing, yes. Verify your existing filter number.

A: Check restriction indicator daily. Replace when indicated, 500-1,000 hours typical.
Q: Can I clean and reuse it?
A: No — dry-type disposable. Do not wash or oil.
Q: Difference vs AF55020?
A: AF55015 for larger engines. AF55020 for smaller QSF/QSB4.5.
