7.7.8 SUMP BREATHER FILTER MAINTENANCE
Refer to Figure 7--9. This filter (P/N 02250118--025)
prevents sump pressure build--up and traps oil aero-
sol emanating from the compressor stages and gear
box. It uses a fine, replaceable element P/N
02250118--258, which may be accessed as follows:
INSPECTION/REPLACEMENT OF ELEMENT
1. Unscrew filter from vent line.
2. Inspect or replace the element with the new filter .
