Cleaning foil cassettes
Clean the foil cassette each time before loading it with foil. The following photographs show the
major areas to clean.
CAUTION: When cleaning the cassette with 99 percent isopropyl alcohol, be
certain that the cassette parts are completely dry before loading the cassette with
foil. Wet alcohol could damage the foil.
To clean the cassette

Rub the squeegee bar with the dull, abrasive side of new or used pink cleaning film. Be
certain to rub the entire width of the squeegee bar all the way out to each edge. As
shown in the following photograph, backcoat from the foil typically builds up at the
far edges of the squeegee bar. Use about one pound of pressure when rubbing and rub
the width for approximately 10 strokes.
