This section describes how to maintain your MTS controller chassis.
Remove any dust from the chassis with Endust™ for Electronics or
equivalent.
Be sure the cooling fan is operational and not clogged. Clean or
replace the filter as required.
The filter is typically located in the top of the chassis, and can be
accessed from the rear.
To clean the air filter:
1. Remove the filter from the chassis.
2. Immerse the filter in a large pan filled with warm water and a mild
detergent, and allow it to soak a few minutes.
3. Gently agitate the filter to loosen debris.
4. Rinse the filter thoroughly with clean water.
Note Do not use compressed air to help dry the filter. Compressed air
may damage the filter element.
5. Allow to drip until completely dry.
Note The air filter has a distinct top and bottom. Ensure you orient the
filter properly.
6. Replace the filter in the chassis.
