(1) When dry dust adheres to the element, blow
compressed air from the inside, turning the
element. Pressure of compressed air must be
under 205 kPa (2.1 kgf/cm ).
(2) When carbon or oil adheres to the element,
replace the element with new one even if it has
not been used for 1 year.
3. Replace the primary element:
Once yearly or after every sixth cleaning, whichever
comes first.

dust.
