Assembly, maintenance and cleaning

Carefully follow the flow direction shown by an arrow on the filter. The filter could be installed in any position although it is recommended to fit it in the vertical position with the bowl downwards in order to facilitate the separation of the water traces and the deposit of the filtered impurities.

Cleaning the filter is carried out by unscrewing the drain plug at the bottom of the bowl.

To carry out a deeper cleaning, unscrew the cover and take away the bowl. Carefully wash the filtering element with clean diesel, gas-oil or gasoline and blow compressed air from inside to outside. Remount the unit and check that the seals are integral and well placed.

Paper elements should be replaced as they cannot be reused. For all the models without the drain plug, simply unscrew the bowl as above indicated. For the W-4 model, unscrew the bowl by hand, clean it as above indicated and reassemble by retightening moderately.
