MAINTENANCE
This section includes instructions for routine cleaning and
lubrication to keep the HS750
plus
plotter in good working order, as
well as instructions for fuse replacement.
Cleaning/Lubrication
Routine cleaning and lubrication should be done monthly or after
every 160 hours of use, whichever occurs first.
For cleaning , use isopropyl alcohol to clean dirty parts. When
using isopropyl alcohol, lubricate the parts immediately to prevent
corrosion.
Use a light oil (such as
3-IN-ONE

) for all lubrication, except as
noted.
TOOL HOLDERS CARRIAGE SPINDLE
Note: Do not lubricate the tool holders or spindle bore.
!
Clean the spindle bore and tool holders daily. There is a very
close fit between the pen, knife, and pounce wheel holders
and the carriage spindle bore. Any dirt or build-up in the bore
or on the tool holder restricts motion and can produce
inconsistent results.
!
Clean the spindle bore and tool holders with isopropyl alcohol
using a lint-free cloth on the tool holders and a cotton swab in
the bore.
