Maintenance
This chapter contains operator maintenance instructions, troubleshooting, and
parts information.
Troubleshooting
Cleaning
The principle maintenance required by the operator will be the cleaning of the
radiator fins. Periodically wipe away the accumulated dust and lint. If the
insulator or metallic contact surfaces of the connector should become dirty or
grimy, wipe them off with a soft cloth and use a contact cleaner that is self
drying and leaves no residue to clean the inaccessible internal parts.
