I think the filter is on the outlet side. When you have the screen out flush with a cleaner ( brake cleaner , wd 40 or something with pressure) Do this against the direction of flow so you are blowing the debris out of the filter and not thru it. Take a look with a magnifying glass or look up to the light to see if its clean. Clean it in a bowl so you can see if any interesting particles come out. If it looks clean put it back in , if not buy a new screen. When its time to clean mine , I wont bother cleaning, Iam just going to put a new one in.

Laser jammers the only option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
