bezel ring so that the arrow next to the word
"

" aligns with the needle of the gauge. As

needle of the pressure gauge aligns with the arrow
next to the word
"DIrTy"
on the bezel, it is time
to clean the filter (see Section 6.3). This indicates
an increased pressure of between 10 and 12 psi
above original starting pressure.
