Chassis Maintenance
This section describes how to maintain your MTS controller chassis.
How to Clean the Chassis
Remove dust from the chassis with appropriate electronics cleaner.
How to Clean the Air Filter
Be sure the cooling fan is operational and not clogged. Clean or replace the
filter as required.
The filter is typically located in the top of the chassis, and can be accessed
from the rear.
To clean the air filter:
1. Remove the filter from the chassis.
2. Immerse the filter in a large pan filled with warm water and a mild
detergent, and allow it to soak a few minutes.
3. Gently agitate the filter to loosen debris.
4. Rinse the filter thoroughly with clean water.
Chassis filter elements can be damaged when improperly cleaned.
Compressed air can damage a chassis filter element.
Do not use compressed air to clean the chassis filter.
5. Allow the filter to drip until completely dry.
6. Replace the filter in the chassis.
