REMOVE AND REPLACE THE COMPRESSOR INTAKE FILTER

Replace the compressor intake filter annually, or more often as needed. The compressor intake filter may become clogged
depending upon the amount of contaminants in the air (smoke, dust, dirt, pollen, etc.) and may need to be changed more
frequently. The most common cause of low concentration and eventual system failure is a dirty or clogged compressor inlet filter.
Environmental conditions usually determine the effective life of a filter.

NOTE:

Always cut the heads of cable ties to avoid damaging the tubing.

CAUTION

Operating the Eclipse 5 with a clogged compressor intake filter may
reduce performance and lead to system damage or premature failure.
