Removing a Broken Probe Tip Filter
If the plastic filter on the probe broke off, the best way to get the filter base out is to use the Fixed-Tip
Retaining-Ring Pliers (LDAR#4217) that are in the phx42 Level One Tool Kit.
1. Carefully use the tip of the pliers to grab the outside of the plastic.
2. Push the ends of the pliers firmly into place.
3. Spin the plastic counter-clockwise to screw it out of the filter base.
REMINDER: Make sure not to touch the center tapered post. If this portion gets scratched or marred,
then it will need to be replaced.
