Operational Maintenance
The scanner or scanner/scale will provide dependable service for many
years. The following maintenance procedures will keep your scanner or
scanner/scale operating at peak performance.
Cleaning the Platter and Scan Windows
. Clean the exterior surfaces of the
horizontal and vertical scan windows at least twice daily with a nonabra-
sive, mild, water-based glass cleaner and paper towels or lint-free cleaning
tissues. The textured plastic surfaces and stainless steel can also be cleaned
using the same cleaning agents.
Cleaning the Air Gap/Debris Chutes & Drip Rail. Daily, clear the debris
chutes between the platter and the outer housing. Most items can be
cleared from the debris chutes by carefully running a thin stiff object like a
credit card along all sides of the weighing surface. If necessary, remove the
top cover to clear the debris chutes and drip rail.
