Figure 2. MF Module Sleeve and Lower Clip Removal.

NOTE

Avoid squeezing the submodule screen against the fibers. Do NOT use a metal

lever between the filtrate cup and the headpiece.

Push the top filtrate cup downward until the top filtrate cup is disengaged from the head.

WARNING

Two-person lift. Two people are required to safely move the MF module. Lift with

your legs, not your back. Failure to observe this warning can result in back injury.

NOTE

If the top filtrate cup re-engages in the top head while lifting, the filtrate cups have

not been pushed far enough onto the submodule.

Remove the whole assembly (submodule, filtrate cups, and center tube assembly) by

lifting the bottom filtrate cup until it clears the bottom head.

NOTE

Make sure that there is a clean area to place the submodule, If not, lay down a

cloth and use this as your work area. Place one end of the assembly on the

ground and stand it up.
