16.0 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

16.1 CLEANING EXTERNAL FINISH AND TRIM

The finish and appearance of your testing frame can be maintained by regular cleaning
with a damp cloth containing a small amount of mild detergent. The frame should be turned
OFF and disconnected from the mains supply whilst cleaning is taking place. Strong
proprietary cleaners and petroleum based or other solvents should not be used.
CAUTION: Take care to use only a damp cloth. NO moisture must ever be
allowed to get into the testing frame. Wipe the frame dry before connecting to
the mains supply and restarting.

16.2 MAINTENANCE

In normal use and conditions, your force testing frame should be serviced and calibrated
annually by CHATILLON or one of their appointed agents. There are no user serviceable
or adjustable parts within the force tester frame, therefore service and calibration should
only ever be undertaken by engineers trained for the task.
If the frame is being used in a particularly arduous way or under extreme conditions,
your appointed service agent may recommend more frequent calibration/service.
