General
1
The Vision Pedestal is robustly made to high engineering standards and little attention is required to
maintain serviceability save regular cleaning. Attention to the following points will ensure a long and useful
service life with minimum need for repair. Should servicing or repair involving disassembly be required, refer to
of this manual.
Cleaning
2
During normal studio use, the only cleaning required should be a regular wipe over with a lint free cloth.
Dirt accumulated during storage or periods of disuse may be removed with a semi-stiff brush. Particular
attention should be paid to the flats on the top stage of the column and to the bowl of the levelling bowl
adaptor.
3
Use out of doors will require special attention especially in adverse conditions. Salt spray must be
washed off with fresh water at the earliest opportunity and the castor wheels dried off and oiled. Do not allow
water to enter the telescopic column. Sand and dirt acts as an abrasive and should be removed with a
semi-stiff brush or vacuum cleaner.
NOTE:
Do not use oil or grease on any exposed part of the telescopic column. This is
unnecessary and traps dirt which acts as an abrasive.
NOTE:
Do NOT use wire brushes to remove accumulations of dirt. This damages the protective
surfaces.
