REPLACING THE FADERS
Channel and cross-faders subject to excessive ‘wear and tear’, or extensive use, over time will require
replacing. Intermittent or noisy operation is an indication of faders becoming worn. Using a propriety
fader cleaner, such as CaigLube, DeOxit, etc. may temporarily restore use, but DO NOT use on new
faders as this can displace factory applied finishes.

If you are unsure of your ability to safely carry out the procedure described, it is advised that you contact
an authorised Allen & Heath agent for local service assistance by a qualified technician. Please contact
