Strip Seal Cleaning
Clean the strip seals, if installed, by using a lint free cloth lightly saturated with
isopropyl alcohol
Refer to the
procedure on page
when performing this task.
Cover Cleaning
Clean the covers at the same time you clean the strip seals. Use pressurized air and
a lint free cloth lightly saturated with isopropyl alcohol to remove any dirt or
grease.
IMPORTANT
Replace the strip seal if it cannot be cleaned, or if an uneven or scored surface is
detected during cleaning.
A buildup of foreign material on the strip seal degrades the performance of the
linear stage. This buildup coupled with rapid movement of the slide and the
resulting friction can score the surface and create a burnished appearance on
the strip seal
Elements contributing to a typical buildup on the strip seals are dust, grease,
and other contaminates normally encountered in any operating environment
that is not strictly controlled.
