Changing Filters - Omegasonics Viking Products Super Pro DX3 Operation & Instruction Manual

Changing Filters

Disposable
 Prior to changing the filters, the water level in the tank must be no higher than the
level of the spray bar.
 Filters should be changed periodically depending on the usage of the equipment and
the contaminants being removed. If water is not flowing more than a trickle from the
spray bar holes, it is time to replace your filters.
 Individually unscrew counterclockwise the two (2) large blue filter cartridge holders.
The cartridges will be full of water.
 Pour the water out of the cartridges and remove the filters. Be careful not to lose the
rubber O-ring gasket located on the inside of the filter cartridge. Absence of this
gasket will cause the filter(s) to leak.
 Replace with new filter(s) and re-install the cartridges.
 The 50 Micron Polycarbonate Filter is the primary filter for Tank 1 and is located on
the right side of the filtration unit.
 The Carbon Filter is the secondary oil filter for Tank 1 and the primary filter for Tank
2. Their canisters are located on the left and middle of the machine, respectively.
The Carbon Filter removes oil and grease and will require changing more often than
the 50 Micron Polycarbonate Filter.
Reusable Stainless Steel
 Clean the outside of the filters in a sink.
