How to Replace the Air Filter on Your Quincy QT-10 Compressor
Your Quincy QT-10 compressor depends on a clean, unrestricted air supply to operate efficiently. Over time, dust and debris clog the filter, forcing your pump to work harder and risking internal damage. Replacing the air filter regularly is a simple but critical maintenance step.
When Should You Replace the Air Filter?
For most QT-10 applications, check the air filter every 3 months (or more often in dusty or high-use environments). Replace it if it looks visibly dirty, damaged, or at least once per year as part of your annual maintenance plan.
Recommended Air Filter: 110377E100
The Quincy QT-10 uses air filter element part number 110377E100. We recommend sticking with a high-quality replacement to maintain proper airflow and avoid introducing contaminants into the pump.
Step-by-Step Replacement Guide
1. Turn Off and Depressurize
Shut off power, unplug the compressor, and drain tank pressure to ensure safe handling.
2. Access the Air Filter
Locate the air intake assembly on the pump head. Remove the cover or housing to expose the filter element.
3. Remove and Replace the Filter
Take out the old filter element and discard it. Install your new 110377E100 filter, ensuring it seats properly and evenly in the housing.
4. Reassemble the Intake Housing
Reinstall the intake cover securely. Double-check that all bolts or screws are tight to avoid air leaks or debris entry.
Protect Your Pump, Improve Performance
Running with a clean air filter helps maintain consistent airflow, protect internal parts, and reduce strain on your QT-10. This simple habit can prevent major repairs down the road.
