Cleaning

Perform the following cleaning procedures periodically to ensure the CK3M-series Programmable Mul-
ti-Axis Controller is maintained in the best operating condition. Always turn OFF the power supply to
the Controller before performing the cleaning procedures.
• Wipe off the dust or dirt on the front, top, or bottom of the Unit with a dry, soft cloth when doing daily
cleaning.
• If dust or dirt remains even after wiping with a soft, dry cloth, wipe over with a cloth that has been
wet with a sufficiently diluted detergent (2%) and wrung dry.
• Smudges may remain on the Unit from rubber, vinyl, or tape that was left on for a long time. Remove
the smudges when cleaning.
Precautions for Correct Use
• Never use volatile solvents, such as paint thinner, benzene, or chemical wipes.

inspections are required to ensure that the required conditions are being maintained.
Inspection is recommended at least once every six months to a year, but more frequent inspections
may be necessary depending on the ambient environment.
Take immediate steps to correct the situation if any of the conditions in the following table are not met.
