Maintenance
This section describes how to maintain the probe.
Cleaning
To prevent damage to probe materials, avoid using chemicals that
contain benzine, benzene, toluene, xylene, acetone, or similar
solvents.
Do not immerse the probe or use abrasive cleaners.
Dirt may be removed with a soft cloth dampened with a mild
detergent and water solution, or isopropyl alcohol.
Replacing Probe Parts
Other than accessories, only the probe tip is replaceable.
Replacement probe tips are available as optional accessories. Refer
to the replaceable parts list at the end of this manual for more
information.
To remove a tip assembly, firmly grasp the pointed tip with pliers
and withdraw the assembly from the barrel.
No tools are required to install a replacement tip. Insert a new probe
tip into the probe barrel as far as possible using finger pressure. If
necessary, seat the plastic portion of the tip against the probe barrel
by pressing the tip gently but firmly against a hard surface, such as a
wood block or table top.
