cleaning and decontamination

  To clean the TrACKMAN, wipe it with a 

soft-cloth or lint-free tissue dipped in 
a simple soap solution or 70% ethanol, 
to remove all marks. if the TrACKMAN 
is very dirty, a brush with soft plastic 
bristles may be used. 

 To  rinse,  wipe  the TrACKMAN  with  a 

soft cloth or lint-free tissue dipped in 
distilled water. 

 Allow it to air dry or dry it carefully with 

a soft cloth or lint-free tissue.

if you use chemical solutions for decontamination or detergents for cleaning other than those speci-

fied below, you should check with your supplier that the solution or detergent is safe for use with the 

following materials: 

ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene), polyester, rubber and stainless steel.

Maintenance

The TrACKMAN must be cleaned regularly.

rubber feet (refer to Chapters 4 and 9).

or other solvents. Caustic cleaning solutions
