Panel Dust Filter Cleaning and Integrity Check (Continues)
Method “A”
Collect dust from the filter. Gently tap the filter
against a flat surface (with the dirty side down) to
remove dust and dirt
Take care not to damage the metal lip which extends
past the gasket
Method “B”
Collect dust from the filter. Blow compressed air
(maximum pressure 6 Bar) into the clean side of the
filter (in the opposite direction of the airflow).
Method “C”
Collect dust from the filter. Then soak the filter in
warm water for 15 minutes, then rinse it under a
gentle stream of water (maximum pressure 2 5 Bar)
Let the filter dry completely before installing it back
into the machine
For a better cleaning, it is allowed to wash the filter
with water and non-lathering detergents
This provides better quality cleaning but reduces the
life of the filter, which will have to be replaced more
frequently The use of inadequate detergents can
damage the filter.
For the paper filter (optional): do not use water or
detergents to clean it; the filter could be damaged.
