REPLACING THE AIR FILTER ELEMENT
In order to clean, position a pipe with an end bent by
approx. 90° on the end of a compressed-air pistol. The
pipe must be long enough to reach the bottom of the
filter element. Carefully blow out the filter element
with dry compressed air (max. 5 bar (72.5 psi)) from
the inside to the outside until there is no more
development of dust. The end of the pipe must not
touch the element.
Next carefully examine the element for possible
damage. Never beat or knock the element as this will
damage it and there will be a danger of damage to the
engine.
Carefully clean the inside of the housing and put the
element in the housing (see section Replacing the air
filter element).
New elements must also be inspected for tears or
punctures before installation.
Discard the element (4) when damaged.
A dirty safety cartridge (3) is an indication of a mal-
functioning air filter element. In that case replace the
element and safety cartridge.
The safety cartridge cannot be cleaned.
1. Release the snap clips (1) and remove the dust trap
(2). Clean the trap.
2. Remove the element (4) and the safety cartridge.
3. Reassemble in reverse order of dismantling. Make
sure the vacuator valve (5) points down.
4. Inspect and tighten all air intake connections.
