NOTICE: Unnecessary damage or wear
To avoid unnecessary damage or wear, only clean the protective glass when the degree of
contamination has an impact on the scan quality (that is, an increase in range noise or a
decrease in scan range).
Major contamination and improper handling to clean the glass may impact the scanning
quality. Self-inflicted damage can result in the need to replace a part at your expense.
Do not use cleaning fluid with alcohol or acetone
. The sealings could be dissolved. We
recommend alcohol-free lens cleaner that can be found in most optical supply stores.
What's Needed
•
Tissues (if those in the transport case are no longer usable, we recommend tissues that can be found
in optical supply stores)
•
In the case of extremely contaminated glass, use an alcohol-free cleaning fluid in spray bottle.
Slightly Dirty Glass
•
Wipe the contaminated glass with the tissue.
Very Dirty Glass
•
Mist a tissue with the cleaning fluid (do not soak).
•
Carefully wipe the contaminated glass with the tissue.
Mobile PC
We recommend checking your device at least once a month. This enables you to spot trouble before it
starts and helps provide you with an efficient measuring system. The computer contains sensitive
components, and it must be handled with care. Follow these procedures to prevent problems with your
system:
•
Do not use the Mobile PC in dusty environments. If the ventilation covers begin to show an
accumulation of dust, contact your FARO representative for maintenance.
•
Avoid knocking or dropping the device.
•
Examine the external interfaces to ensure that they are not damaged.
CAUTION:
Do not run the Mobile PC when it is in the case.
