Fan Assembly
DESCRIPTION
Maintenance of the filter element for the fan is described in this Figure.
The foam filter element requires regular inspection and cleaning. The cooling fan for the HP
8340B/41B is powerful, and pulls a large amount of air through its filter element; subsequently, the
filter element collects dust, smoke, and other contaminants even from environments that seem quite
clean. To prevent impaired cooling from a dirt-clogged filter, it is imperative that the filter be inspected
regularly, and replaced as needed. (Filter replacement is recommended; cleaning by vacuuming or
washing and drying, is recommended only if a replacement filter is not available.) Section VI (Replace¬
able Parts) contains a complete parts listing for the fan, in the B1 Fan Assembly pictorial.
