3. Remove the element from the housing. 
4. Clean the interior of the housing by using a 
damp cloth. Do not blow out dirt with com-
pressed air as this may introduce dust down-
stream of the filter. 
5. When it becomes necessary to remove the 
secondary element, pull the element out of 
the housing. 
6. Install the new secondary element. 
7. With the secondary element in place, replace 
the primary element.
6.9.5.2 Air filter element inspection
1. Place a bright light inside the element to 
inspect for damage or leak holes. Concen-
trated light will shine through the element 
and disclose any holes.
2. Inspect all gaskets and gasket contact sur-
faces of the housing. Should faulty gaskets 
be evident, correct the condition immedi-
ately.
3. If the clean element is to be stored for later 
use, it must be stored in a clean container.
4. After the element has been installed, inspect 
and tighten all air inlet connections prior to 
resuming operation.
6.9.5.3 Primary air filter element replacement
1. Place the element in position over the sec-
ondary element.
2. Install the cover with clean-out port pointing 
down.

Refer to Figure 6-5. When fluid carry-over is evident after 
the fluid return-line strainer and orifice, as well as the 
blo
wdown valve diaphragm, have been inspected and 
found to be in satisfactory condition, or if the separator 
restriction gauge reads in excess of 10 psig (0.7 bar), 
sep
arator element replacement is necessary. Follow the 
procedure explained below:
1. Remove all piping connected to the receiver 
tank cover to allow removal (return line, ser-
vice line, etc.).
