5. MANTENANCE
General
For the programmer and its peripherals to work correctly, some simple
indications for the care and maintenance of the system must be followed.
The periodicity of this care depends on the time of use, on the environmental
conditions and on possible external aggressions (friction, splashes of
adhesive, contact with high temperature areas, etc). As a general rule, it is
advisable to carry out a visual inspection once a month.
Warning:
Before carrying out any intervention to the equipment, switch it off
and unplug the power supply lead.
Outside cleaning
To keep the outside of the programmer clean, clean the equipment with a
soft cloth (slightly moistened with water). Do not use solvents (turpentine,
benzene, etc), which may deteriorate the equipment surface.
Do not replace the cable with another one of a type that is different from that
provided by the equipment or recommended by Focke Meler. If in doubt, please
check with your Focke Meler Representative or the Focke Meler Main Office.
The cleaning of the screen can be carried out with this same cloth using the
screen lock function (see page 4-26) to ensure that no buttons are pressed.
Connection leads
Keep the equipment power supply lead in perfect conditions. Replace it if any
deterioration is observed.
Also keep the leads of peripherals (applicators, photocells, encoder, etc) in
excellent conditions. Replace them if any damage to them is observed (consult
spare parts references).
