Maintenance 

Once the product has been installed, minimal maintenance will be required.  Basic visual checks 
to ensure integrity should be made periodically. 

General 

Under normal usage, no routine maintenance is necessary for these instruments. Should it be 
necessary to replace the fuse, unplug the unit from the AC line power source, remove the cap 
from the fuse holder and remove the fuse, Replace only with a 250V/ 0.6A fuse. 

Should  a  problem  arise  with  the  power  unit,  contact  the  factory  for  help  in  analyzing  the 
problem and/or for instructions on sending the unit back for evaluation. 

Should the PS12 develop a problem, contact the factory Service Department for help in trouble 
shooting  or  for  instructions  in  returning the unit  to  the factory for  evaluation.  At  this  time,  a 
Returned Material Authorization (RMA) number will be assigned to help track the unit through 
the repair process, should it be necessary to return the unit to the factory. 

Warranty 

If any PRO product should ever fail, we will repair or replace it at no charge, as long as the 
product was not subjected to misuse, natural disasters, improper installation or modification 
which caused the defect.
