3.1 Air Filter Service
The CKMP12V2 Portable Air Compressor comes factory fitted with a high
density, high flow, sintered bronze air filter to protect the compressor
components, and any accessories that might be used with the compressor,
from damage caused by the ingress of dirt and fine dust particles. The filter
element is removable and cleanable and should provide for years of
continuous service.
Follow the steps below to disassemble, clean, and re-assemble the air filter.
Unsnap and remove the air filter cover from the air filter base by applying
slight prying pressure under the fingers of the cover.
Remove the filter element disk.
Vigorously wash the element in a solution of hot soapy water.
Rinse the element in pure hot water.
Dry the element thoroughly.
Insert the element back into the air filter base making sure that the
flattest face of the disk faces toward the compressor.
Snap the air filter cover back onto the base and rotate the cover into the
desired position.
