6 Parts Cleaning
Caution: Fire Risk
To provide radio interference suppression, the alternator is equipped with capacitors with a long storage time.
Cleaning of alternator components may cause and electrical discharge when they are immersed in cleaning
fluid. This discharge may cause combustible liquids to ignite.
Alternator components with capacitors should only be cleaned with a non-combustible cleaner such as HAKU
1025/6.
Caution: Compressed Air
Only use compressed air regulated to a maximum of 4 Bar (60 PSI), and a clean cloth for cleaning of the
armature, excitation windings and alternator plates.
Caution: Explosion Risk
Avoid exposure to fire, open flame and sparks. Thoroughly dry all cleaned parts as gases could form from the
cleaning process and may cause an explosion.
