Cleaning the Regeneration Filter
Clogged filters reduce air flow and dryer efficiency. Cleaning frequency depends
on the condition of your dryer’s ambient air.
1 Push in on the sides to release the tabs on
the front cover. Remove the cover.
NOTE: Larger dryer models (W1600 - 5000)
do not have covers.
2 Remove the filter wing nut, then remove
the filter.
3 Remove outer filter and clean it with soapy
water. Let air dry.
4 Clean the filter by laying it on its side
and gently tapping it on the floor.
Replace damaged, worn or clogged
filters.
5 Reverse the procedure to reinstall the
regeneration filter.
CAUTION: Wear eye protection. If you use compressed air to clean the equipment, you must
wear eye protection and observe all OSHA and other safety regulations pertaining to the use of
compressed air.

CAUTION: Hot sur-
faces. Always protect
yourself from hot sur-
faces inside and out-
side the dryer and dry-
ing hopper.
NOTE: Dirty or clogged
regeneration filters are
the leading contributor
of dryers not reaching
desired dewpoints.
