5-2 Troubleshooting and Maintenance MN2488
Cleaning Keeping the light tower clean is an important part of good operation. If dirt buildup is not
removed, the light tower will run hotter than normal and it’s life is reduced.
The following are general guidelines for cleaning.
1. Clean the light tower and remove any and all dust, dirt, or other foreign material.
2. Inspect and clean the cooling air intake and exhaust louvers of the enclosure. Make
sure they are clean. Remove dirt or any buildup that may restrict the cooling air flow.
3. Clean the light tower and its components with a damp cloth or sponge.
Never use a water hose or pressure washer as this may damage electrical
components.
4. Inspect and replace any control panel components that are broken or not working
properly (receptacles, circuit breakers, switches, etc.)
5. Inspect and clean all engine linkages so they operate properly.
