16. Cleaning and maintenance

Generally, the instrument has to be turned off and disconnected
from the power supply, before you start cleaning it.
16.1. Daily cleaning
The transport tray and the waste container have to be cleaned
and emptied every day as to ensure the correct functioning of the
instrument.
Carefully remove the black transport tray from the housing. To
do so, pull on the black handle on the transport tray's right side.
Empty the waste container. Rinse the table with clear water, if
necessary, you can use some mild cleaning agent as well. To
disinfect the transport tray, you can use alcohol based disinfect-
ants (70 – 85% ethanol or isopropanol). After disinfection, rinse
the table with water again.
Note: Do not clean the transport tray in a dish-washer!
16.2. Weekly cleaning
Housing, transport rack and touch screen should be cleaned at
least once a week.
Wipe the housing with a damp cloth. If necessary, you can use
a mild cleaning agent. Then, dry the housing with a soft cloth.
Transport plate and the surface underneath the transport table
can be cleaned in the same way. Make sure that no water pen-
etrates the housing or gets into the printer.
We also recommend cleaning the transport rack on a regular ba-
sis in the same way as the housing. Please make sure not to use
strongly alkaline cleaning agents on the transport rack.
To clean the touch screen, use a soft, lint-free cloth. If necessary
you can use special LCD cleaning fluid, which is commercially
available.
Note: Never use aggressive, organic solvents such as acetone
for cleaning the instrument. We recommend isopropanol for
cleaning and disinfection.
