Cleaning the Element
Check the dirty element for damage
and check the rubber seal on the end.
Push the rubber seal with your finger. If
the rubber seal feels hard and does not
move back to original shape, discard
the element.
1. Wear face protection and remove
the loose dirt with compressed air
at 30 psi (207 kPa, 2.1 bar)
maximum. Hold the nozzle at least
1 inch (25 mm) from the element.

detergent (Case Part Number
A40910) with two gallons (7.6
litres) of water, one cup for 16
gallons (60 litres) water.
3. Soak the element in the soap
solution for 15 to 20 minutes and
then move the element up and
down rapidly to loosen as much dirt
as possible.

use a drier, do not exceed 160°F
(71°C) and make sure the air is
circulating in the drier.
6. Use a light and inspect the element
for holes or splits in the pleats.
Check for damage to the metal
parts and rubber gasket. Replace
the element if damaged.
