The hot air exhaust from the fans should also be inspected to ensure there has been no
accumulation of dust hindering airflow. Exhaust is shown in Figure 26. Cleaning of the fans
can be done using cotton buds.
c)
Cleaning the protective vents
•
The protective vents should be cleaned to ensure proper
functionality. There are three vents on the terminal. One
close to the buttons and next to the Serial Number on
the bottom part of the terminal as depicted in Figure 27.
Another two are situated on the backside of the antenna
on each side of the polarization center axis as seen in
Figure 28.
•
If the vents are not properly cleaned there is a possibility
that pressure builds up which risks causing a
malfunctioning terminal.
•
Note that no sharp object should be used to clean the
protective vents as that might damage the vent or alter
their functionality.
d)
Cleaning the moving mechanical parts
•
The moving mechanical parts include
o
The elevation wheels.
o
The elevation locking lever.
o
The polarization rotation mechanism.
•
Inspection of moving mechanical structures is important to make sure no dirt is present
hindering the movement of said parts.
•
To clean the overall mechanical parts, use a damp cloth.
