4.  MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS 
4.1 Introduction 
The operator should perform the preventive maintenance tasks to keep 
the SeaFLIR II Imaging System in optimum operational condition.  
WARNING  
Do not attempt to repair the SeaFLIR II Imaging System 
components.  The system contains many high precision 
components representing several state-of-the-art 
technologies.  Without proper training and support 
equipment, unauthorized maintenance could easily damage, 
or misalign the system. 
4.2 Preventive Maintenance 
WARNING  
The SeaFLIR II Imaging System is shipped with the elevation 
axis brake locked.  When removing the SGA from its 
shipping case, do not try to rotate the ball in elevation 
manually.  Repeated un-powered rotation of the Gimbal will 
cause damage to the Gimbal braking system. 
4.2.1  Cleaning SGA Lenses 
NOTE: 
Access to the lenses for cleaning is accomplished with the 
SeaFLIR II Imaging System ON and the SGA in the preset or 
home position (set with the azimuth and elevation controls). 
CAUTION  
Do not use cleaning fluids containing ammonia or acids.  
They can damage the optical coatings on the windows.  Use 
only a soft cotton cloth or lens tissue dampened with 
isopropyl alcohol or fresh water.
