5.2 Routine Mechanical Maintenance
5.2.1 Cleaning
Use a vacuum cleaner as required to clean the cabinets. Be aware of static discharge
problems with the use of high velocity air in dry climates when cleaning any circuit-
board with static sensitive components. A variety of static-safe vacuum equipment is
available at most computer supply dealers.
A soft natural bristled paint brush with metal binding and wood handle can be used to
dislodge dust with minimum static generation. Hold the metal binding and touch a
grounded surface to discharge any difference in potential before working on the board.
Do not use nylon brushes with plastic handles.
