Can someone give me the run down on what an air dryer is and how to check and replace the filter on a 2016 Pete 587?

Some might not like my way but, if its being stubborn I take a long screw driver, hit it through the cartridge with a hammer and then twist it...
Should only take a minute or two to change it....csmith1281 Thanks this. -

Might want to bleed air off the tanks first.csmith1281 Thanks this. -
I ended up getting it serviced at Sapp Bros in Peru, IL. I asked the tech if they would be willing to show me how to maintain the system, and they did. I learned a lot. Also watched a YouTube video In which a guy completely replaced is there a dryer. That poor son of a gun‘s dryer was buried way up underneath his cab. Mine is just right under the cat walk.
Thanks everyone for your help.JonJon78 Thanks this.
