VISIFILTER ELEMENT REPLACEMENT
Follow the procedure listed below to replace the VisiFilter element when it becomes clogged or
discolored.
1. Disconnect the handpiece air hose by gently turning
and pulling the coupled Fittings.
2. Disconnect the Visifilter and hose assembly from the
Power Source by gently turning and pulling the male
Fitting inserted into the SNAP-VAC Port.
3. Disconnect VisiFilter from both attached 1 inch air
hoses by gently turning and pulling the VisiFilter while
holding each of the hoses.
4. Separate the 2 plastic housing halves of the VisiFilter in
the following manner.
a) Grasp the VisiFilter in the palm of the hand with the
Male Nib (air hose connection) marked "FLOW IN"
facing you.
b) Pull against one of the Wing Tabs while pulling on
the Male Nib with the free hand to open the
interconnection of the plastic housings at that Wing
Tab.
c) Pull against the second Wing Tab while pulling on the
Male Nib to open the remaining interconnection and
separate the plastic housings.
5. Remove the old or discolored Element and discard.
6. Insert the replacement VisiFilter Element into the
housing marked "FLOW IN". Center the Element in
the housing well.
7. Squeeze the 2 plastic housing halves together using 4
plastic Bumps on the housing marked "FLOW OUT" as
pressure points. The 2 plastic housings will snap
together and lock the VisiFilter Element in position.
8. Reconnect the 1 inch air hoses (removed in step 3) to
the VisiFilter.
9. Attach VisiFilter and hose assembly to Power Source by
