WARNING
Before performing compressor
maintenance, disconnect the
compressor from the power source
and lock out the power source. Isolate
the compressor from the line
pressure by closing the
recommended discharge shut-off
valve and releasing all internal
pressure from the compressor.
1. Insert a 100mm maximum length, 6mm diameter pin
into the radial-drilled hole in the separator cap. Loosen
and rotate counterclockwise to remove the cap.
2. Pull out the old element by gripping the end of the
element with channel lock pliers or a similar tool.
3. Remove the separator element.
4. Once the separator is removed, the separator fluid
return line can be accessed for removal and cleaning.

separator element filter. Oil lightly to make installation
easier.
