Abstract
An integrated fan shroud air intake system for a tractor provides an air passage through a fan shroud positioned between the radiator and internal combustion engine. The air passage has an intake and an outlet laterally displaced from the intake. An air filter is mounted transversely to the longitudinal axis of the tractor, with a dirty air inlet plugged directly into the outlet of the air passage.
