In general, clean Stencil Pro scanner with isopropyl alcohol for the metal parts, including
the threaded base. Use warm water for the remaining non-metal parts, such as the body
of the scanner and the GNSS antenna/bracket. Use a clean microfiber towel, or a damp
cloth if needed, to dust or clean the Stencil Pro controller.
For cleaning the Velodyne lidar sensor, use isopropyl alcohol for the polycarbonate ring
lenses. If the lidar is caked with mud or bugs use a spray bottle with warm water to
loosen any debris from the sensor. Do not wipe dirt directly from the sensor. If necessary,
use isopropyl alcohol and a clean microfiber towel to clean any bug splatter or other
debris from the sensor. Then use warm, mildly soapy water and gently wipe the sensor
with a clean microfiber towel. Wipe along the curve of the sensor and not top-to-bottom.
Spray the sensor with clean water to rinse off the soap and dry with a second, clean
microfiber towel.
