ESS XT-3 - Air Filter; To Clean the Air Filter

ESS XT-3 OWNER’S MANUAL
Air lter
Note: XT-3 units manufactured aer March 2009 do not require an
air lter on the spraywand air leader.
For XT-3 units manufactured before March 2009, there is an in-line air lter located outside
the base of the spraywand in the air hose. It lters dirt out of the air lines. It’s easy to tell the
Air Filter from the Liquid Filter Assembly because the Air Filter is in a silver-colored casing.
Replacement parts for the air lter assembly are available as a kit. The kit includes a lter, and
large and small o-rings.
Order using ESS part number 231.
To clean the air lter:
1. Unthread the casing from the cap using a 3/4” wrench on both parts. Be careful not to lose
the spring or the air lter inside of the casing.
2. Check inside each part for debris. Clean any dirt out with compressed air or warm, soapy
water.
3. Reassemble the air lter, making sure to put it together as shown above.
