Servicing

The instructions apply to one filter; they should be repeated for all
other filters.

1. Release the snap clips (1) and remove the dust trap (3). Clean

the trap.

2. Remove the retaining nut (2) and withdraw the element (7)

from the housing (9).

If the element is to be serviced for immediate reuse, reinstall the
dust trap to protect the air intake system while cleaning the
element.

3. Reassemble in reverse order of dismantling.

4. Inspect and tighten all air intake connections.

Cleaning

1. Release the two snap clips (1) that secure the dust trap to the

filter body and remove the dust trap.

2. Pry off the plastic baffle (4) from the dust trap and empty the

latter.

3. Clean the dust trap and baffle and reassemble them, taking care

that the slot in the baffle fits over the stud of the trap.

4. Reinstall the dust trap on the filter body, with the side marked

TOP upwards, and secure it with the clips. Never use oil in the
traps.

OOLERS

Keep the coolers clean to maintain the cooling efficiency.

Service doors are provided in both sides of the fan cowl to allow
easy access to the fan side surface of the coolers. A service door in
the bottom of the fan cowl is provided to remove dirt. The door can
be opened from the inside of the fan cowl.

Remove any dirt from the coolers with a fibre brush. Never use a
wire brush or metal objects. Then clean by air jet in reverse
direction of normal flow.

If the dirt is oily, wash the coolers with fuel or a cleaning agent. A
spray gun should preferably be used to apply the solvent to the fins.
Rinse the block by means of a water jet after a soak in period.
Steam-cleaning may also be applied.

Close the service doors. Do not leave liquids behind.

AFETY

VALVE

Following checks must be carried out:

– a check of the opening of the lifting gear, twice a year. This can be

done by screwing the cap of the valve anticlockwise.

– a check of the set pressure once a year according to the local

regulations. This check cannot be done on the machine and must be
carried out on a proper test bench.

Never remove the elements while the compressor is
running.

The elements may not be washed more than three
times.

New elements must also be inspected for tears or
punctures before installation.

Discard the elements when damaged.

A dirty safety cartridge is an indication of a mal-
functioning air filter element. Replace the element
and the safety cartridge in this case.

Replace the safety cartridges together with the filter
elements. The safety cartridges cannot be cleaned.
