DISASSEMBLY

The following disassembly and assembly procedure is presented for reference purposes and presupposes that a major rebuild of the Bendix® AD-IP®air dryer is being undertaken. The replacement parts and maintenance kits available generally do not require full disassembly. The instructions provided with these parts and kits should be followed in lieu of the instructions presented here. Refer to Figures 8 and 9 during disassembly.

While performing service on the AD-IP air dryer, it is recommended that a clamping device (vise, C-clamp, etc.) not be used to hold any die cast aluminum component as damage may result. To hold the end cover, install a pipe nipple in the supply port and clamp the nipple into a vise.

1.Using an adjustable, or socket wrench, loosen the desiccant cartridge bolt (10), then separate the desiccant cartridge (11) from the end cover (6). Pull the desiccant cartridge bolt out of the end cover (6).
