Kohler 1408309-s Foam Filter Element

Product Description

The KOHLER 1408309-s is a foam filter element designed for use in Kohler small engines. This part serves as a primary or secondary air filtration component, capturing airborne debris and particulates before they reach the carburetor and combustion chamber. Proper air filtration protects engine internals from accelerated wear and helps maintain consistent fuel-air mixture ratios. Installation is typically performed by small engine technicians, outdoor power equipment service shops, or experienced equipment operators during routine maintenance intervals.

This foam filter element is suited for residential and light commercial outdoor power equipment applications. It is installed in the air cleaner assembly of compatible Kohler small engines commonly found in lawn tractors, zero-turn mowers, generators, and similar engine-driven equipment. Regular replacement of this element is a standard part of scheduled engine maintenance.

Key Features

• Foam construction provides effective filtration of dust and debris
• Direct OEM replacement ensures correct fit in the air cleaner housing
• Maintains proper airflow to support clean combustion
• Designed for routine service interval replacement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement foam filter element for compatible Kohler small engines. Consult the engine model and specification number on the engine shroud to confirm fitment before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified small engine technician or experienced service professional. Shut down and allow the engine to cool completely before accessing the air cleaner assembly. Remove the air cleaner cover, extract the old foam element, inspect the housing for debris, and seat the new element fully before reassembling. Follow the equipment manufacturer service manual and any applicable local regulations for small engine maintenance.
