- 4Do not use high pressure when cleaning fins
- 5Dry the core using compressed air (less than 205 kPa / 30 psi) directed in the reverse direction of normal flow
- 6Dry the core with compressed air (maximum pressure less than 205 kPa / 30 psi) directed in the reverse direction of normal flow
- 7Dry the core with compressed air directed in the reverse direction of normal flow
- 8Ensure maximum air pressure at nozzle is less than 205 kPa (30 psi) for cleaning purposes
- 9Flush the core thoroughly with clean, fresh water until exiting water is clear and free of debris
- 10Flush the core thoroughly with clean, fresh water until water exiting the core is clear and free of debris
- 11Flush the core with clean, fresh water until the exiting water is clear and free of debris
- 12Only use the recommended concentration of cleaner (two to five percent concentration)
- 13Remove the aftercooler core according to the Disassembly and Assembly Manual
- 14Remove the core
- 15Remove the core per the Disassembly and Assembly Manual
- 16Remove the drain plug
- 17Steam clean the core and flush fins to remove residue without using high pressure
- 18Steam clean the core and flush the fins of the aftercooler core
