INSTALLATION

A typical connection layout is shown.
1. Keep pipe lengths to a minimum with the inside free of dirt.
2. Remove any blanking plugs from the connection ports and connect to the supply and delivery hoses or directly to the pump using the 1” male adaptor supplied.
3. Install the filter so that flow is as indicated by the direction arrows on the filter top moulding.
4. Mount the filter vertically ensuring there is sufficient free space below the filter for future access including use of the filter removal spanner.
Four holes are provided in the top moulding (shown below) to facilitate screw mounting to an overhead bracket (not supplied) if required. These holes will require tapping to match the threads of suitable machine screws.

MAINTENANCE

The filter can be disassembled without removal from pipeline using the spanner supplied to unscrew the filter bowl.
1. Ensure the water supply is turned off.
2. Unscrew the bowl and remove the filter cartridge.
3. Clean the components with warm soapy water only.
CAUTION: The bowl is made from polycarbonate which can be severely damaged if it comes into contact with some chemicals. These include acetone, benzene, carbon tetrachloride, ethylene di-chloride, gasoline or synthetic fire resistant lubricants.
4. Rinse and dry the parts. Blow out internal passages with compressed air. Eye protection should be worn when using compressed air.
