Air Filter Cleaning/Replacement
The Polylase-MX is equipped with two air filters that prevent dust and foreign matter
from building up inside the machine. These are located in the front of the machine,
behind the air vents on the bottom of the front panel, as shown in Figure 3-4. The
direction of the air flow is indicated by the yellow arrows.
Figure 3-4.
Air Filter Location
There are two filters of different sizes: the vertical sitting filter is 5.6” x 12.9” and the
horizontal filter is 7.6” x 10”. There is a mesh screen on one side of the filter, and the
direction of air flow is marked as shown in Figure 3-5.
Figure 3-5. Air Filter Flow Direction
In order to access the air filters remove the machine side panel. Then the vertical filter
can slide out of the bracket. Clean the horizontal filter in place with a vacuum and small
brush. To install cleaned or new filters, slide them into the brackets, making sure the
mesh screens on the filter face the inside of the machine.
To clean the filters, remove them from the machine and thoroughly wash with warm
water and allow to dry. Filters should be replaced when the foam begins to wear.
