Note:  A snapband retainer has been shipped 

for each filter. If you do not have these 

snapband retainers, call your Donaldson 

representative immediately so they can be 

sent to you for proper installation.

3.  Pinch the snapband retainer in the center to form a 

figure “8”.

4.  Bend the loop slightly and place the retainer under 

the molded lip of the top flange of the filter. This 

shallow lip prevents upward movement of the 

snapband retainer after proper installation. With the 

snapband retainer held against one side of the filter  

top interior,  slowly allow the retainer to expand into 

the recessed area between the lip rim and the four 

interior post stops.
