11.2.1. Inspect/Clean FHB Vacuum V-Grooves
The FHB vacuum V-grooves should be inspected regularly for dirt and debris. The V-groove can be cleaned,
using the soft brush provided in the tool kit. The bristles of the brush can be wetted with acetone if more thorough
cleaning is required (such as removing dried PM coloring agent).
Note: Never immerse the entire FHB in cleaning solution! Do not clean the FHB V-groove inserts while the
vacuum is on. Wear safety glasses and be very careful when “brushing” with acetone, as acetone may “spray”
from the brush.
