Tweet of the Week - January 13

Our Tweet of the Week comes from South Australian organisation Pinery Grain Growers who uploaded a video of a harvester air filter being cleaned with the ingenious use of a wobble-T sprinkler head.

The sprinkler head was purchased for $6.50 online and placed on the end of an air compressor to blast out trapped dust and dirt. It is wise to remember the maximum air pressure for most air filters should not exceed 30 psi without causing damage to the filter.

While this idea is brilliant in its simplicity and affordability, always check the manufacturer’s specifications and terms of warranty for your machine before trying this at home.
