Cleaning Filter Cartridge
NOTE:
Remove filter cartridge only when the applicator is hot and not under
pressure. Install only in a hot applicator.
WARNING:
Hot! Risk of burns. Wear safety goggles and heat‐protective
gloves.
WARNING:
System and material pressurized. Relieve system of pressure
before replacing a filter cartridge. Failure to observe can result in serious
burns.
Removing Filter Cartridge
1. Place a container under the filter bore.
NOTE:
Use a second open‐end wrench when screwing in and out the
pressure relief screw (1, Fig. 12). This prevents the filter cartridge (2, Fig. 12)
from turning.
2. Screw pressure relief screw out of the filter cartridge until material flows
out.
3. Turn the filter cartridge all the way counterclockwise.
4. Simultaneously press the filter cartridge in and turn counterclockwise
again (bayonet fastener): then extract it. Use an open‐end or ring wrench
(size 17), if necessary.

NOTE:
If the filter cartridge is stuck in the filter bore, grasp the filter cartridge
with a pliers and extract.
5. Purge the filter bore by allowing the pump to run briefly with
material. This
rinses out particles of dirt that may still be in the filter bore.
6. Properly dispose of material according to local regulations.
