Bigger and better! This fuel filter (7400454) includes the mounting head with in and out ports.  The mounting head is not sold separately and requires infrequent replacing. It is the same mounting head as the previous filter. The filter is bigger with a new layer of media giving you improved water separation from fuel, which increases engine protection. Because of its increased size, we have included two clamps for installation. Easy to service, no special tools needed - removing and replacing spin-on filters is hassle free. All fuel filter water separators come with a standard draining valve making routine maintenance clean, easy, and efficient.

You will not find another filter that removes the water and dust particles as completely as the Bobcat filter:

• Greater dust and contaminate capturing capacity at 4 micron at 99.8%
• Removal of 99.8% of the water from the fuel, exceeding engineering specifications
• More pleats
• Stronger, tear resistant media
• Built tough - more robust against media and canister failure
• Fuel filter water separator with a draining valve
• Improved protection for iT4/T4 engines
• Two worm drive clamps may be needed for installation (order separately) 42H72
• Filter Maintenance Interval: 500 hours
• Bobcat recommends having a spare fuel filter for cold weather protection*

For first time use, some machines will need a new mounting bracket to accommodate the larger filter:

*With Tier 4 Engines, the process to remove sulfur raises the cloud point (CP)  - the temperature where wax begins to drop out of fuel - which can contribute to fuel filter plugging. Because of this, it is good practice to have a spare fuel filter in cold weather.

Due to engineering standards, some parts are updated or changed and are assigned a new part number. Previous part number was 7013579. This part is the direct replacement.
