Caring for the Tablet and Transducer
Follow these precautions at all times to avoid damaging your
DrawingBoard V:
Avoid discharging static electricity to the tablet.
Do not place heavy objects on the tablet surface.
Do not use sharp objects, such as compasses or knives, on the tablet
surface.
Do not use the tablet surface for any purpose other than drawing,
tracing, or digitizing.
Do not drill any holes on the digitizer or controller.
Cleaning the Tablet
To clean the tablet’s surface, use a soft, non-abrasive cloth. Hardened dirt
may be removed with a slightly dampened cloth. Do not clean pencil
lines with a soft cleanser or pencil eraser. This may create an undesirable
shiny spot on the tablet’s surface that cannot be removed.
Replacing the Pen Tip
To replace the pen tip, grasp the tip
and pull straight out (see figure).
Insert the new tip and press until it
clicks
into place.
Tablet Care
Cleaning the Cursor
To clean the cursor body, use a mild cleanser. Do not spray the cleanser
directly on the cursor—instead, dampen a soft cloth with a mixture of
water and the cleanser. Clean the cursor reticles with alcohol.
Excessive cleaning can dissolve the filled black crosshair
on a reticle.
Do not use abrasive cleaners, acrylic, or lacquer paint
thinners – or cleansers with an acetone or solvent base,
such as MDC or EDC – on the tablet surface. They will
damage the tablet case.
