8.3 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

The following preventive maintenance steps are required for continued satisfactory
performance and safety of the Accutorr Plus and optional accessories. Inspections and
replacement of consumable supplies and accessories that are subject to normal wear, must
be accomplished at least as frequently as the inspection of the host unit. Read the
Warranty statement in the Operating Instructions for description of warranty conditions.
The suggested minimum maintenance schedule is based on normally expected wear and
tear of system and components. The intervals may be shortened at the user's discretion
when conditions of use may warrant. In case of internal instrument failure, component
replacement, and possible or actual instrument damage, it is strongly recommended that
complete performance and safety verification be conducted.
