ABSTRACT:
An engine air intake screen assembly having a rotating screen is provided. A blade is positioned directly under the screen to scrape accumulated debris off the inside surface of the rotating screen, and to also chop debris flowing through the screen. The screen covers an opening in a blower housing and rotates when the engine is running. In one form, a set screw allows the clearance distance between the blade and the inside surface of the rotating screen to be adjusted.
