OWNER MAINTENANCE
The best way to prolong the life of your TL4008 is to
keep it dry, cool, clean and covered when not in use.
The unit exterior may be cleaned using a soft cloth
dampened with a mild detergent/water mixture or a
mild spray-on type cleaner. DO NOT SPRAY ANY
LIQUID directly on the unit. DO NOT IMMERSE the
unit in any liquid or allow liquid to get into the
controls. DO NOT USE any solvent based or
abrasive cleaners on the unit.
The faders are not cleanable. If you use a cleaner in
them – it will remove the lubrication from the sliding
surfaces. Once this happens it is not possible to re-
lubricate them.
The white strips above the faders are not covered by
the TL4008 warranty. If you mark on them with any
permanent ink, paint etc. it is likely that you will be
unable to remove the markings without damaging the
strips.
There are no user serviceable parts in the unit.
Service by other than Lightronics authorized agents
will void your warranty.
