    IR.20-150 7. Maintenance The egg counter normally requires a minimum of maintenance. The lens usually remains dust free. If the counter functions inaccurately, clean the lens. Clean a dirty lens with an antistatic cloth or compressed air, preferably once a month. If necessary, a non-aggressive glass cleaner can be used.
