New 1000 Series
Quick release canister type
Warning! Discard the used canister and fuel oil in a
safe place and in accordance with local regulations.
Cautions:
! It is important that only the genuine Perkins parts
are used. The use of a wrong canister or element
can damage the fuel injection pump.
! Do not allow dirt to enter the fuel system. Before a
connection is disconnected, clean thoroughly the
area around the connection. After a component
has been disconnected, fit a suitable cover to all
open connections.
1 Thoroughly clean the outside surfaces of the filter
assembly.
2 Loosen the drain device (A6), and (A8) if a pre-filter
is fitted, at the bottom of the canister or sediment bowl
(A5) and allow the water or fuel to drain into a suitable
container.
Note: If the filter does not have a drain device fitted,
release the cap (A2) on top of the filter head. Remove
the nylon insert to lower the level of the fuel in the filter
canister. This will prevent fuel spill when the gland
ring (A7) is released.
3 Support the filter canister(s) and rotate the gland
ring to the left and remove the gland ring.
4 Remove the canister(s) from the filter head by a
direct pull downwards (A1), and discard the old
canister.
5 If a sediment bowl is fitted, remove the bowl and
thoroughly clean the cover of the bowl.
6 Check the two 'O' ring seals of the sediment bowl
for damage and renew them if necessary.
7 Clean the threads of the sediment bowl and fit the
bowl to the canister and tighten by hand only.
Caution: It is important to ensure that the main and
pre-filters are fitted in the correct positions.
8 Ensure the filter head is clean. Push the new
canister(s) fully into the filter head (A3).
9 Support the canister(s), fit the gland ring and rotate
it to the right to fasten the canister to the filter head.
10 If it was removed, fit the nylon insert used to lower
the level of the fuel in the filter canister and fasten the
cap.
11 Eliminate the air from the fuel filter , see operation
20-9 , operation 20-12 and operation 20-15 .
