I.7 Cleaning
Make sure the instrument is in a decent working environment (dust-free, moderate temperature,
low humidity, etc.).
Make sure the instrument is on a level surface.
Hands/fingers must be clean and free of residue sample. Not doing so may result in deposit
build up on the upper part of the shaft and cause interference between the shaft and the pivot
cup.
Be sure to remove the spindle from the instrument prior to cleaning. Note left-handed thread.
Severe instrument damage may result if the spindle is cleaned in place.
Instrument and Keypad:
Clean with a dry, non-abrasive cloth. Do not use solvents
or cleaners.
Immersed Components (spindles): Spindles are made of stainless steel. Clean with a
non-abrasive cloth and solvent appropriate for sample
material.
When cleaning, do not apply excessive force, which may result in bending spindles.
