Cleaning and Lubricating
The
Timex Electronic
Cleaning the
Model
50 Movement
Timex has found,
after
careful investigation,
that
the best
way
to
clean
the movement
is
to
disassemble the movement only to the
point
of
removing the balance
bridge
and
the balance.
The
balance
should be cleaned
separately
in a small
jar
to
avoid
dam-
age
to the coil. The coil
is
composed
of
ultra-fine
copper
wire
and
should
not be handled with tweezers
or
other
sharp instruments.
Only
standard watch cleaning solutions should be used throughout.
Particles adhering
to
the
magnet
can be removed with Scotch tape.
Lubricating the
Model
50 Movement
The movement should be
re-lubricated
in the normal manner using
only
hi-grade
watch oils (oils used
in
factory
assembly

b). The
balance
bearings should be
filled
V2
full
before
inserting the
balance.

to
the stem where
it
is
held
by
the
