Internal filter on Fuji Q4 HVLP turbine?
« on: August 21, 2012, 01:06:56 pm »

Has anybody every changed or cleaned the internal filter on a Fuji Q4 turbine?

The big filter at the corner is easily accessible, but apparently there is also a much finer internal filter.  After too many years my old turbine just isn't puttin' out like it used to, so I'm thinking it might be time to do something with the insides.  I called a couple suppliers, they mentioned that there was an internal filter "thing" but the parts may be unavailable.  Say what?  Maybe that means the only option is cleaning.

Would appreciate any info related to this.  I opened up the turbine box a few years ago and I kind of recall some sort of filter thing there.  It was difficult to open and close the case (hammer required) so I'm asking this question before going that route again.

Bill,  Maybe consider doing an "overhaul?"  Might be something to consider, especially if maintenance requires more than an internal filter.
