6.5.2 Air Filter Maintenance
Refer to Figure 6-3. The air filter supplied with your compressor is a two-stage system
which offers more than adequate filtration. The air filter should be inspected periodically
to maintain maximum compressor protection and filter service life. These inspections
should be made:
1. Inspect the air transfer duct work between the air filter and compressor unit to be sure
all clamps and joints are tight and there are no cracks in the ducting.
2. The air filter mounting clamps and bolts must be tight to hold the air cleaner securely.
3. Check the rain cap to make sure it is sealing 360° around the air cleaner body.
4. Inspect for dents and damage to the air filter. The end cap (dust cap) of the filter is
removable and should be emptied of dirt particles every 100 hours.
5. Check the filter more frequently if used under extreme conditions. The air filter
element is a cleanable type and should be serviced in accordance with the following
instructions.
