406LXR Series Product Manual

Filter Cleaning and Replacement.

During operation air is drawn into the body of the LXR thru the vents located on each end of the base. The
movement of the carriage pulls air in and out of the body cavity in considerable volume. These vents are
covered by filters to prevent the build up of dust and other air borne contaminates in the body of the table. With
out these filters dust build up could damage the linear bearings and/or optical encoder. Depending on the
operating environment these filters will need to be cleaned or replaced at regular intervals. When dust buildup is
visible on the filter media maintenance is required.
Tools Requires:
Hex keys: 2mm
1. Remove the four (4) screws on each filter using a
2mm hex key.
Cleaning:
2. Using a small screwdriver or finger nail pry the
media retainer out of the back side of the filer
assembly
3. The filter media can now be washed with soap
and clean water. Rinse thoroughly and allow the
filter to dry completely before reassembly.
Blotting the filter with paper towels will speed
drying.
4. Place the filter media between the filter body and
media retain and press the retainer into the body
until it snaps into place.
