3.3   Maintenance  

 

 

 

 

If operated correctly, the pneumatic vibration isolation system needs minimum maintenance. As 

a rule, the maintenance includes the assurance of the cleanliness of the air supplied, i.e. replacement of 
the filter and removal of any water. 

 
3.3.1     Cleaning  

 
 

 

The  table  and  other  parts  of  the  system  may  be  cleaned  using  a  non-abrasive  liquid  detergent. 

 

 

3.3.2      Air quality 
 

Oil,  water  or  impurities  contained  in  the  air  entering  the  system  may  clog  level  controls  and 

worsen the operation of the system. Use of air treatment filters is obligatory. Please refer to section 1.3.
