Routine cleaning
Keep internal and particularly moving parts free from dust by wiping with a soft cloth. To remove stains
or residue from external metal and plastic parts, use a soft cloth just dampened with a neutral
detergent. Remove grease, print and adhesive residue from templates with alcohol cleaner
and a clean, soft cloth.
Do not allow fluids to come into contact with electrical parts or the ribbon or to remain on
moving parts. Wipe up all spills.
As much as possible, avoid the ingress of environmental contamination, eg dust, into the TTPCard. Fit
the protective cover when not in use.

Replace fuses

compartment (10) located at the back of the TTPCard. Replacement fuses must have exactly the
same characteristics as the ones replaced. Disconnect the TTPCard from the mains supply before
opening fuse compartment (10). Ensure fuses and compartment are correctly relocated before
reconnecting the mains supply.
