MAINTENANCE
DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER SOURCE
BEFORE PERFORMING MAINTENANCE ON MACHINE!
CAMERA CLEANING
After every use, the camera should be cleaned and checked for possi-
ble damage that may have occurred during the inspection. External
scuffing of the camera housing is normal and should be of no con-
cern; however, use the trap skid to protect the camera and help it
slide around elbows more easily.
The camera lens is made of sapphire and should be cleaned with a
soft, damp cloth. Grease, dirt, or scratches will affect the quality of the
video picture.
CABLE AND REEL ASSEMBLY CLEANING
WHEN CLEANING THE REEL ASSEMBLY DO NOT USE A POW-
ER WASHER. WATER MAY GET INTO UNSEALED AREAS SUCH
AS THE REEL HUB ASSEMBLY AND SLIP RING HOUSING
CAUSING DAMAGE AND VOIDING THE WARRANTY.
The cable and reel assembly should be kept clean from dirt. When
rewinding the cable back onto the reel after an inspection, it is good
practice to use a clean rag to wipe off any debris the cable may have.
