I.9 Cleaning
Instrument, Keypad & Painted Surfaces:
Clean with dry, non-abrasive cloth. Do not use solvents or cleaners.
Immersed Components (spindles/cones) and temperature controlled plate:
All immersed components are made of carbide steel. Clean with non-abrasive cloth
and solvent appropriate for sample material that is not aggressive to immersed compo-
nents.
Do not use metal objects to clean the plate surface, as scratching of the plate may oc-
cur and compromise cone calibrations.
Solvent Trap:
Solvent Trap (P/N C1K-63) is made of Teon. Clean with non abrasive cloth and solvent
appropriate for sample material that is not aggressive to Teon.
When cleaning, take care not to apply excessive force which may bend the spindle
shaft or otherwise damage the instrument.
