for damage or leak holes. Concentrated light will
shine through the element and locate any holes.
2. Inspect all gaskets and gasket contact surfaces
of the housing. Should faulty gaskets be evident,
correct the condition immediately.
3. If the clean element is to be stored for later use, it
must be stored in a clean container.

tighten (if necessary) all air inlet connections
prior to resuming operation.
