Cleaning Procedure — Interior. To clean the oscilloscope interior, perform the
following steps:
1. B l ow off dust with dry, low-pressure, deionized air (approximately 9 psi).
2. Remove any remaining dust with a l int-free cloth dampened in isopropyl
alcohol (75% solution) and rinse with warm deionized water. (A cotton-
tipped applicator is useful for cleaning in narrow spaces and on circuit
boards.)
STOP. If, after performing steps 1 and 2, a module is clean upon inspection, skip
steps 3 and 4. Pr oceed with step 5.
If steps 1 and 2 do not remove all the dust or dirt, all modules in the oscilloscope
except the Display Module, Fan, and Disk Drive may be spray washed using a
solution of 75% isopropyl alcohol. Proceed with step 3.
3. Spray wash dirty parts with the 75% isopropyl alcohol solution and wait
60 seconds for the majority of the alcohol to evaporate.
4. Use hot (49_ Cto60_ C / 120_ F to 140_ F) deionized water to thoroughly
rinse the parts.
5. Dry all parts with low-pressure, deionized air.
6. Dry all components and assemblies in an oven or drying compartment using
low-temperature (52_ Cto66_ C / 125_ F to 150_ F) circulating air.
Lubrication. There is no periodic lubrication required for the oscilloscope.
