SECTION 7:  MAINTENANCE /SERVICE 

 

The unit is basically maintenance free but periodic checks should be made to ensure the correct 
operation of the fan and the good condition of the power cable. 
 

 

NOTE: 

To  reduce  the  risk  of  shock  hazard  disconnect  the  degausser  from  the  mains  voltage 
supply before carrying out any maintenance or servicing. 

 

7.1 

Circuit Breaker 

 
 

To reset the circuit breaker simply 'push in' and 'release' the button. 

 

7.2 

Bulb Replacement 

   

 

 

NOTE: 

 

Remove Power from the unit before replacing bulbs

 

 

7.2.1

  Remove the "bulb lens" from the "switch/indicator body" by levering it forwards. 

 

7.2.2

   Remove the bulb from the rear of the "bulb housing" using a suitable extraction tool. 

 

 

7.2.3

  Replace the bulb noting the following: 

 

 

 

a) 

The bulb will fit in only one position in a locating slot.  If when fitting this does 
not occur, remove the bulb 

 

 

 

and rotate it through 180°. 

 

 

7.2.4

  Refit the "bulb lens" to the "switch/indicator body" by gently pushing the lens into the 

"switch/indicator body" housing. 

 
 

 
 
 
 
7.3 

Cooling Fan 

 

The cooling fan is of the conventional axial type powered from the ac voltage supply. The 
unit is over temperature and over current protected and does not require servicing. 
However in the event of failure the fan may easily be replaced from the rear of the 
degausser.
