REPAIR INFORMATION
Your ATD System is covered by a three-year limited warranty and should
be referred to the factory for repairs within the warranty period. Attempts to
make repairs within this time frame may void the warranty.
X-Rite provides a factory repair service to their customers. Because of the
complexity of the circuitry, all repairs should be referred to the factory.
X-Rite will repair any ATD System past warranty. Shipping cost to the
factory shall be paid by the customer, and the instrument shall be submitted
in the original carton as a complete, unaltered unit.
OVERVIEW
The System requires little preventative maintenance to achieve years of reliable
operation. However, to protect your investment and maintain measurement
accuracy, a few simple cleaning procedures should be performed.
SCANNING HEAD
NOTE: DO NOT use any solvents or harsh cleaners of any kind.
NOTE: DO NOT move the trolley up and down the track manually without
the scanning head attached .
In the course of normal use, spray powder, paper dust, and other airborne
contaminants will likely enter the instrument's optics. This can eventually
reduce the sensitivity of the instrument and may lead to calibration errors.
Follow the steps below to clean the optical components.
