Hi guys - I have a TD5050 with about 190 hours on it. I have cleaned the air filter previously, but just bought a new one (both the inside and outside filters) to replace. When I install the new filters, it takes more effort that I expect to close the three latches on the cover - the cover doesn't seat all the way unless I close it one latch at a time which gradually pulls it closed. I made sure the two covers are lined up. Both filters appear to be seated all the way.
Without any filters in place, the cover just snugs right in and clips shut without any pressure. I put the old filters back in and they seem to fit a little deeper, allowing the cover to close easier.
Is this normal? Am I doing something wrong? I would hate to have those latches pop off and compromise the function of the filter without me knowing it.
Thanks for any input - Daniel
