Maintenance
Enclosure Finish
The responsibility for ensuring that a finish protects
the enclosure lies with both the manufacturer and the
user. Manual PMH Pad-Mounted Gear is nished with
the Ultradur® II Outdoor Finish, which provides lasting
protection for the enclosure. To retain this protection, the
user should take periodic corrective action as fol lows:
STEP 1. Touch up any penetration of the nish to bare
metal—such as scratches and abrasions due to
ship ping or vandalism—to maintain the original
integrity. S&C touch-up nish and primer are
available in aerosol spray cans—order by
catalog number: 9999-058 for olive green nish,
9999-080 for light gray nish, and 9999-061 for
red-oxide primer. No other nish or primer is
approved. The area to be touched up should be
cleaned to remove all oil and grease. Sand the
area, removing any traces of rust that may be
present, and make sure all edges are feathered
before applying primer.
STEP 2. Provide an occasional simple washdown—such
as an automobile would be given—to remove
surface con taminants. Use any ordinary mild
household detergent solution.
In those cases where the enclosure must be re nished by
the user before the nish has weathered—for example,
to match other equipment—a special precaution must be
taken. The entire surface must be sanded to provide a tooth
to bond the new coat to the unusually tough and smooth
Ultradur II Outdoor Finish.
