5.2.1.2 Replacing the metal capillary filter with the plastic capillary filter
If you want to switch from a capillary filter made of metal to a capillary filter made of
plastic, you have to the remove the plugwasher. The plugwasher sits on the steel capillary
in the sniffer probe.
1 Turn off the Ecotec E3000.
2 Unscrew the filter.
3 Unscrew the two cross-head screws in the sniffer probe flange and take out the sniffer
probe.
4 Push the capillary out of the plastic sheath a bit from the top with a narrow pin or a thin
needle (about 0.5 mm). Make sure that the sinter filter in the sniffer probe flange does
not get lost in doing so
5 Remove the plugwasher from the sniffer probe.
