2. Cleaning Procedures
DRY CLEANING SOLVENT AND ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL ARE
HAZARDOUS MATERIALS. BEFORE USE, READ AND OBEY THE
MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET (MSDS) INSTRUCTIONS FOR
CORRECT HANDLING. FAILURE TO OBEY THIS WARNING MAY
RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY, LONG TERM HEALTH HAZARDS OR
DEATH.
A. Clean all of the metal parts by washing them thoroughly in dry cleaning solvent. Remove any
stubborn deposits by scrubbing them with a non-metallic stiff bristle brush. Use a Teflon® pick to
remove any blocked ports, grooves, and flow passages.
B. Make sure the flow passage of the nozzle body (IPL Figure 1, 1 or 1A) is clean, especially where
the plugs (10) are installed.
C. Clean all of the non-metallic parts by wiping them with clean lint-free tissues slightly moistened with
isopropyl alcohol.
Note: All parts must be free of corrosion, dirt, grease, oil or any other foreign matter.
