more frequently if needed. If the ventilator is operated with a low grade or contaminated O

source, the O

inlet filter may need to be replaced more often. If the filter is damaged or
cannot be thoroughly cleaned, it should be replaced.
Parts required for replacement: Tools required:

To clean or replace the O

inlet filter:
1) Disconnect the high pressure O
2
hose from the oxygen block on the left side of the
ventilator.
2) Using a pick, remove the rubber O-ring from inside the O
2
inlet port. Tip the ventilator to
allow the O
2
inlet filter to slide out.
3) To clean the filter, use a mild cleaner, warm water and a soft brush. Rinse the filter
thoroughly to remove all traces of the cleanser. Allow the filter to dry completely before
replacing it in the ventilator.
4) Inspect the filter for damage. If the filter cannot be completely cleaned or shows signs of
damage replace it with a new filter and O-ring.
5) Replace the filter by sliding it back into the O
2
inlet port. Replace the O-ring, making sure
it is completely tucked under the retaining lip on the inside of the O
2
inlet port.
6) Reconnect the high pressure O
