Clean Gantry Rails
When to do
If you notice any dirt or ink on the gantry rails, or an accumulation of debris on the grey rail
bearing shields, clean them immediately with a Poly-Wipe lint-free cloth.
NOTE
Gently wipe dirt or debris from the gantry rails or bearing shields to avoid removing the
lubricating grease.
IMPORTANT
In the event of an ink spill on the rail, it should be cleaned immediately, before the bearings have
a chance to run over the spill. After the area has been cleaned, wipe the spill area again
thoroughly with a water-moistened lint-free cloth to remove any chemical residue before
running the gantry over the area again. Slight ink stains that remain on the rail after cleaning are
not a major problem.
Procedure
1.
Open the Maintenance Station cover to ensure that there is no possible gantry or carriage
movement.
2.
Use a dry lint-free cloth to remove any visible debris that has accumulated next to the runner
bearing shields. It is only necessary to clean the outside bearing shields. When removing debris
always wipe away from the shields so you don't push dust into the bearing block.
3.
Wipe any debris from the gantry rails. Do this gently so that you do not remove the grease that
lubricates the bearings as they move along the rails.
4.
Close the Maintenance Station cover.
