WARNING
Compressed air can pierce the skin and cause injury.
Never use your hand to check for leaks or to determine
air flow rates. Wear safety glasses to shield your eyes
from flying dirt and debris. Failure to comply could result
in death or serious injury.
4. Dry the filter element using low pressure compressed air
(32 psi/221 kPa maximum). Rotate the element while
moving air nozzle up and down the element exterior. Do
not rap the element on a hard surface.
5. Hold the filter element up to a strong light source. The
element can be considered sufficiently clean if light is
uniformly visible through the media.
6. Inspect all hose connections for cuts, tears, holes or
signs of deterioration. Replace as necessary. Direct
compressed air through hoses to verify that they are not
plugged.
