The Liquid Filter Assembly
The liquid filter assemby is located
outside the base of the handgun. It
is composed of these parts: a 1/8"
NPT body (item 10), a strainer (item
11), and a cap (item 12). The
To disassemble, clean and reassemble the liquid filter assembly:
1. Using a 13/16" wrench on the cap and and 11/16" wrench on the 1/8" NPT body,
unthread them.
Note: When you disassemble the liquid filter assembly, notice how the parts fit
together in order to reassemble them properly. Be careful not to lose any parts,
particularly the flow disk which is inside the cap. The sprayer will not function
correctly without the flow disk.
2. Remove the strainer from the 1/8" NPT body.
3. If the 1/8" NPT body contains residue, clean it with compressed air or clean
water.
4. Clean the strainer with compressed air or clean water. If residue still remains in
the 50 mesh screen, disassemble the Strainer. Unscrew the top brass part from
the bottom brass part. The 50 mesh screen slides off the brass body and can be
cleaned with compressed air or clean water. If residue still remains, soak the 50
mesh strainer in water. If necessary, scrub it with a soft toothbrush to remove
stubborn residue. Replace the 50 mesh screen and screw the top brass part
back on the lower brass part.
5. If the flow disk is still in the cap, remove it. Check the aperture of the flow disk for
blockage. If there is any, clean it with compressed air or clean water. Replace
the flow disk so that the numbers on the disk face the strainer.
6. Replace the strainer in the 1/8" NPT body.
7. Rethread the 1/8" NPT body and the cap.
