In general, stages operating in a clean environment should be cleaned and lubricated annually or every 500
km (whichever comes first). For stages operating under conditions involving excessive debris, the stage
should be cleaned every six months. For high-speed applications (those near max speed at a duty cycle of
50%), more frequent maintenance with standard lubricants is required.
Monthly inspections should include but not be limited to:
Visually inspect the stage and cables.
l
Re-tighten loose connectors.
l
Replace or repair damaged cables.
l
Clean the ACS and any components and cables as needed.
l
Repair any damage before operating the ACS.
l
Inspect and perform an operational check on all safeguards and protective devices.
