Cautions:
• It is important that only the genuine Perkins parts
are used. The use of a wrong canister or element
can damage the fuel injection pump.

area around the connection. After a component
has been disconnected, t a suitable cover to all
open connections.

renewed at the same time.
1. Thoroughly clean the outside surfaces of the
lter assembly.
2. Loosen the drain device (A5), if one is tted, at
the bottom of the canister and allow the water/

ring (A2) counter-clockwise and remove the
clamp ring.
4. Remove the canister from the lter head by a
direct pull downwards (A1), and discard the old
canister (A4).
5. Ensure the lter head is clean. Ensure that the
lter head and canister seals (on page 27/A2 and
A3) are tted and in good condition. Push the
new canister (A3) fully into the lter head.
