General maintenance information
1. GENERAL
Always use a fresh supply of isopropyl alcohol and a clean
container to prevent contamination by dissolved material
from previous usage.
Isopropyl alcohol may be applied with a stiff, non-metallic,
short-bristled brush to dislodge embedded or caked material
located in hard-to-reach areas. The brush stroke should
direct the dislodged material out and away from the
VRM 500.
Alcohol is a high-wetting liquid and can carry contamination
into unwanted places if an excessive quantity is used. Make
sure that components are not soaked with the liquid. Do not
use high-pressure air to hasten the drying process. This
could cause the liquid to collect in unwanted places. Use a
soft, absorbent, lintless cloth to dry the area.
