1. Remove the stylus.
2. Remove the swarf deflector.
3. Use a C spanner to remove the probe’s front
cover. This will expose the metal eyelid seal
and the inner diaphragm seal. Remove the
metal eyelid and spring.
CAUTION – these
may fall out.
4. Wash inside the probe, using clean coolant.
(DO NOT use sharp metal objects to clean
out debris.)
5. Inspect the diaphragm seal for signs of
piercing or damage. In the event of damage,
return the probe to your supplier for repair, as
coolant entering the probe mechanism could
cause the probe to fail.
6. Refit the spring and metal eyelid (the spring’s
widest diameter is against the metal eyelid).
7. Refit the remaining components.
