I installed this kit today, 03-31-2024, on my Gravely ZT HD 60. It has the Kawasaki FR730V engine. This was a very easy installation. I also cut a hole in the OEM filter cover, using a drill and a 2 3/8” hole saw, and put it back on. A perfect fit!! When installing the mounting bracket plate with the 2 philips head screws, I used red loctite on the threads to help keep them from vibrating loose. This is a very easy project to do and I highly recommend this upgrade if you want your engine to last.

Well Designed Upgrade..! I thought the Kawasaki FR Air Filter Upgrade Kit was well-designed so the end-user could easily upgrade the air filtration on their Kawasaki FR-Engine...and hopefully gain improved air flow and filtration. Being in rural Texas, I often experience very dusty conditions while mowing - and all of the finite crud quickly packs the tiny OEM air filter during each use. I wonder what effect the virtual reduction of air flow has really had on my engine over time...I recently blew both FR-730V head gaskets! Based on the posted comments of a previous Buyer - I used my Dremel tool to carefully cut away the front of the OEM air filter hatch - and mounted the black plastic hatch along with the steel upgrade bracket. In after-thought, I perhaps might have taken considerably more time and also traced the outline of the upgrade hose in front of the plastic hatch and just cut away the center leaving both front sides intact to help keep out debris. Sorry, but I really like the way the OEM Kawasaki engine label looks...! I also have quite a few dips and bumps in my grass field(s) and noticed the constant impacts could easily loosen up the upgrade air intake cap so that it could likely drop off in the field while mowing - so I definitely suggest you TIGHTLY attach the hose clamp to secure the cap.

does changing the filtering system affect the motor warranty?
@PowerEquipmentMan
Ай бұрын
Unfortunately, we can not make any claims on how this kit will or will not affect your warranty. Honestly it has more to do with your dealer and how they handle the claim. Technically, in order for this kit to "void your warranty" there would have to be proof that the upgraded air filter was what caused the failure. For example, installing an upgraded air filter would have no effect on your starter failing, so legally they couldn't deny your replacement starter warranty claim because of an air filter upgrade.

Just installed this on my RZT61X with the FR730V. Extremely easy install... however, I drilled a 3inch hole on the factory filter housing and mounted it with the new canister bracket. Looks even better than your suggested install as it still shows the brand of engine and class. Thanks for a great product. Will be buying another for my other ZT. Is there a way to send pics to show exact location of hole and clearance around the hose to carb?

What does this actually do besides a better air filter? Do you get a performance increase?
@PowerEquipmentMan

We do not make any claims that this kit will improve the engine's performance. The primary purpose of this upgraded air filter kit is to extend service intervals between filter cleaning/replacement. This kit will help keep your air filter cleaner longer, and reduce the chances of your engine getting "dusted" from pulling dirt threw the smaller OEM filter. Getting cleaner, cooler air will help extend the life of your engine.

Well...that's a tough question to answer as it depends a lot on your conditions. But for example, we have a customer that used to replace his OEM filter 3 times per year, and now he can go 2 years between replacing the canister filter. So that would be a 6 to 1 ratio. Hope that helps!

This air filter canister kit is designed to be used in very dirty applications. These engines have issues with the OEM filter plugging with dirt too quickly when used in very dirty conditions. These canister filters stay cleaner longer. Getting cleaner, cooler air to the engine is going to help your engine last longer and extend service intervals between cleaning/replacement of the air filter.

The OEM air filter on the FR series engines is a poor design that gets packed with dirt and grass too fast when getting used in extremely dirty conditions. Using this canister air filter upgrade keeps the air filter cleaner longer. You will get much longer run times between air filter changes. Getting cleaner cooler air to your engine will help extend your engine life. We have some customers that couldn't go 10 hours without having to replace the oem air filter, after going to this canister they could run all season without replacing the filter. The money they saved in replacement air filters paid for the kit.

What Jonas said. Plus, this housing and cylindrical filters are more efficient, and feature an extra safety filter. The 2nd ( inner) safety filter prevents problems like getting a hole in your flimsy OEM paper filter. Improving air filtration is one way to increase the life expectancy of the FR/FS series engines. The housing has a mounting hole for a filter minder ( highly recommended) to eliminate the guesswork from filter changes.

Our air filter upgrade kits have nothing to do with "looking cool". These kits are designed to be used in extremely dirty mowing conditions where the OEM filter is getting packed with dirt in just a few hours of run time. To this date we have not heard of any of our customers having issues with warranty coverage after installing this kit. We actually have dealers that buy these kits by the pallet and install them on almost every brand new machine they sell. I strongly encourage you to do some research before installing a K&N style air filter on any mower. K&N filters increase engine performance by allowing more air to flow through the filter element. It accomplishes this by having larger holes in the fabric of the filter, which also allows more dirt particles to pass through the filter. K&N filters are NOT designed to be used in extremely dirty conditions with very fine dirt particles - like mowing! K&N filters are great in racing applications where extended engine life is not a concern as race engines get rebuilt often, or street driving where extreme dirt is not an issue. I'm not sure about you, but I have no desire to rebuild my lawn mower engine after every 20 or 30 hours of use. Thanks for watching!

I know that when you go to install a Donaldson canister air filter as such you generally have to her up the carburator to the difference in air flow on the commercial industrial Kawasaki's do you have to up jet the carb on the fr series Kawasaki's as from the stock air cleaner to the canister is the airflow the same or is there a difference and if so do you have a factory up jet kit for the fr series and if so does it come included in the canister upgrade kit thanks
