Maintenance
The Rx system is designed to provide many years of reliable and efficient processing of
ophthalmic lenses. Its ability to provide this service is significantly enhanced with proper
maintenance. Due to the many integrated systems within the Rx, it is highly recommended that
service and maintenance is only done by trained technicians. Failure to do so could result in
damaged equipment, increased down time, or injury of personnel.
Personal protection equipment should be worn at all times when
operating or maintaining this equipment. Several chemicals may
be used that should not come in contact with skin, eyes, etc. Refer
to all SDS sheets for clear instructions.
