An air intake assembly (12) of a vehicle (10) can be adjusted to selectively communicate ambient air to an engine for summer operation and air from the engine enclosure (16) to the engine for winter operation. Accordingly, during winter operation, and especially for tree harvesting vehicles, which harvest snow laden trees creating localized snow flurries, any snow which collects on the air intake assembly (12) cannot be drawn into the engine causing poor engine performance or engine shutdown. The air intake assembly (12) includes an intake cover (72) which is pivotal from a position covering an ambient air inlet (60) to a position covering an air inlet (71) from the engine enclosure (16). |
