The outer dust filter is removed by rotating it slightly counter clockwise and pulling up.  
This outer filter uses a bayonet type engagement. 
 
The dryer filter is removed by unscrewing it from the plastic base.  These filters come 
with a red plug in each end.  The plugs must be removed before installation.  In 
addition, the dryer filter installed in the power supply unit is shipped with these plugs in 
place.  

The laser will not operate until the dryer filter is unscrewed from the filter 

housing and the plugs removed!

  The laser is shipped with two spare DFD-10 dryers.
