Inspection Procedures: It is our recommendation that in a mobile or trucking

application, the PneuClean filter element be inspected on a weekly
basis and changed at least every 12 months.

For PneuClean filter elements part numbers PC5001.

The following inspection procedure must be implement ed in order for
the product warranty to be in effect. Any change or deviation from this
procedure voids the Dixon Bayco product warranty and removes Dixon
Bayco from any contamination liability.

• Remove quick disconnect V-clamp, remove end cap.

• CAUTION: Open slowly and listen for pressure.

• Pull the element completely out of the assembly housing.

• Carefully look into the housing at the bottom gasket and guide

plate.

• Check to see if the white bottom gasket is in place and clean.
Replace if missing, broken or damaged. Clean the housing if dirty.

• Check the inside of the sidewall of the housing for oil residue and
small particles. Remove with clean cloth, steam, or cleaning
device of choice.

• Carefully inspect the outer surface of the filter element by looking
into the pleated area for very dark color media, oil or grease
residue, fiberglass fibers, and caked on product. If this surface
appears to have heavy deposits of contaminates such as metal,
iron oxide or caked on product, and/or the element has been in
service for twelve months it should be replaced.

• Turn the element up on its end where you can look down into the
open end. Use a light or flashlight, if needed. Carefully look at the
sides of the element.

• If the screen wire and/or media show signs of deterioration
replace immediately

• If the screen wire and/or media do not show signs of
deterioration, but has been in operation for 12 months,
replace filter immediately.

• If product is caked up inside this area, replace
immediately.

• If the element has been run longer than 12 months replace
immediately.

• Inspect lid o-ring and replace if damaged.

• Loosen adjusting bolt, replace lid and clamp ring. Tighten clamp

ring. Tighten adjusting bolt and lock nut. Replace acorn nut.

Do not service this filter canister while under pressure!

We recommend maintaining a filtration inspection logbook to assist in
establishing a replacement schedule that is optimal for your fleet.

PneuClean Mounting Information

PneuClean should be mounted to the frame or stable platform by using the
two mounting brackets (P/N PC5003). These brackets are stainless steel 1.25"
X 8.00" in diameter, with feet and 7/16" pre-drilled holes.

When mounting vertically to the frame, the brackets are mounted
approximately 6-8" on center. The mounting brackets are to secure the filtration
unit to the tractor; allow at least 6" between the brackets in order to stabilize
the unit. There must be at least 20" between the end cap and the road surface
in order to remove the filter element.

When mounting horizontally to the frame, the brackets should be mounted
approximately 10"-15" on center. There must be at least 20" beyond the end
cap in order to remove the filter element for inspection or replacement. In most
installations, the quick disconnect coupling (with rain cap) can be used. The re
should be some type of support for the hot hose, either on the tractor or on the
trailer.

NOTE: Neither the inlet or the outlet piping on the PneuClean unit were

designed or fabricated to hold non-supported hoses and/or piping. This can
void all warranties. Hot hoses and/or piping should be supported with
structurally sound brackets, which are not connected to the PneuClean units.
Before starting please inspect the unit for any damage which might have bee n
caused during shipping.

There are two primary places PneuClean filtration units can be mounted on
the road tractor or on the dry bulk trailer.

Tractor

When mounting PneuClean on the tractor, the units can be mounted either
horizontally or vertically this application offers an added benefit in that the filter
unit will act as a silencer if mounted within 24” of the blower discharge port.

Do not hard mount the filtration unit to the blower. A soft silicon pipe should
be placed between the two. When hard mounted blowe r vibration has caused
stress cracks along the side weldment of the inlet pipe on the filtration unit.
