Installation & Operational Considerations
Before installing the product, blow out the piping to remove any
piping scraps, dirt, oil and scale.
Failure to do so may lead to early clogging due to an initial heavy load
of foreign material in the piping.
Do not remove the product from its box or protective covering
until just prior to installation. Remove any plugs or seals just
prior to installation.
The protective covers keep damage causing foreign material out of
the product.
CAUTION
Do not use a wire-brush or other hard devices to clean the screen.
Doing so may damage or detach the meshed screen.
