Daily Filter Pan Maintenance

NOTICE -

During installation and reassembly be sure to apply oil to all O-rings to lubricate and to help prevent tears and oil loss. Visually inspect O-rings and replace if worn or damaged.

 

Every 90 days replace O-rings. Remove O-rings from their groove and install new O-rings by gently rolling into place and lubricating with oil.

 

Use a small blunt object to gently pry O-rings from their groove to inspect for damage. Install by lubricating then gently rolling them in to place.

Use these steps when initially assembling the filter pan, installing a new filter, reassembling the filter pan assembly, and after disassembling and cleaning the filter pan.

  1. Slide a filter envelope on to the filter screen so the plug is protruding through the hole. Take care to not tear the filter envelope.

  2. Fold-over the end of the filter envelope, and then slide a handle-clamp over the end. Ensure the handle faces the center plug.

  3. Align the hole in the pickup tube with the filter screen plug, and then press down.

  4. While placing the filter screen in the bottom of the filter pan with the plug side up, position the pick-up tube so the guide slides into the holder bracket.

  5. Press down on the pick-up tube to confirm it is fully engaged on the filter screen plug.

  6. Place the crumb catcher into the filter pan so both legs are behind the pickup tube.

  7. Place the lid onto filter pan. Slide the lid back and forth to ensure it is captured on the drain pan and not able to slide off.

  8. Push the filter pan into place and lock it into place using the locking latch.

NOTE: The lid may need to be pushed rearward for proper latch engagement.
