Hydrophobic filter disc

To replace the hydrophobic filter disc (membrane), with reference to Figure 22
above:

1. Carefully pull the complete hydrophobic filter holder away from the oxygen

sensor holder on the rear wall of the chamber.

2. With a fingertip or a 10-11mm (½-inch) rod, from the rear of the filter

holder, gently push the filter membrane disc and the filter cap out of the
holder.

3. Clean and dry the filter holder and cap.
4. Wearing gloves to avoid contaminating the filter disc, gently place the new

filter membrane disc into the filter holder recess. The filter disc works in
both directions, so there is no right or wrong side.

5. Make sure the O-rings (between the cap & filter holder and between the

filter holder & oxygen sensor holder) are undamaged and securely in place.

6. Gently press the filter cap back in.
7. Press fit the filter assembly back onto the oxygen sensor holder.
