Element(s) are shipped separately and must be in-
stalled before filter is ready for service. Remove hex
fasteners(s) from tie rod(s) in housing.
Remove element(s) from packaging and remove o-ring(s)
from bottom end cap(s) of element(s). Install o-ring(s) in o-
ring groove(s) on hex fastener(s). (See Figure 2).
Install element(s) in housing so that the tie rod protrudes
through small hole in bottom end cap.
Thread hex fastener(s) onto the tie rod(s) and tighten so that
Provide support under blind flange to prevent it from falling
when bolts are removed. Blind flanges are heavy and could
cause injury if allowed to fall.
(See Table 3 for blind flange weights).
Remove bolts from flange and lower blind flange for access
to elements. Filter models F101-500 through 2000 are
equipped with a single long flange bolt to permit rotation of
blind flange for access to elements. (See Figure 1).
Before closing housing, inspect baffle to make certain that
new elements have been installed in each position.
(See Table 5 for element replacement data).
With gasket in place, carefully raise or swing blind flange
into place and align bolt holes. Insert all bolts and complete-
ly tighten all nuts evenly.
Close drain valve; then slowly open inlet and outlet valves.
Close by-pass valves if provided.
Filter is now in service.

Drain oil removal filters every shift.
Check differential pressures regularly on coalescing and
particulate filters (AA, A, B, C, RA, RB, RC, and HT grades).
When differential pressure reaches 10 psid, install clean ele-
ments. On adsorbing filters (grade RD), install clean elements
when hydrocarbon vapors are first detected downstream or
every six months, whichever comes first.
For correct replacement element model numbers, see label on
filter housing and/or the bottom endcap of the element.
(Refer to Table 5).
