Inspection and Cleaning
Inspection and Cleaning describes how to inspect for dirt and damage, and how to
clean the exterior and interior of the instrument. Inspection and cleaning are done
as preventive maintenance. Preventive maintenance, when done regularly, may
prevent instrument malfunction and enhance its reliability.
Preventive maintenance consists of visually inspecting and cleaning the instrument
and using general care when operating it.
How often to do maintenance depends on the severity of the environment in which
the instrument is used. A proper time to perform preventive maintenance is just
before instrument adjustment.
General Care
For optimum performance, follow these recommendations:
„
Protect the instrument from adverse weather conditions. The instrument is not
waterproof.
„
Do not store or leave the instrument where the liquid crystal display (LCD) will
be exposed to direct sunlight or high humidity for long periods of time.
„
The cabinet helps keep dust out of the instrument and must be in place during
normal operation.
„
To avoid damage to the instrument, do not expose it to any sprays, liquids, or
solvents.
