[140] Dust on the gantry rail
When to do
If you notice any dirt or ink on the gantry rails, or an accumulation of
debris on the grey rail bearing shields, clean them immediately with a
Poly-Wipe lint-free cloth.
NOTE
Gently wipe dirt or debris from the gantry rails or bearing shields to avoid
removing the lubricating grease.
IMPORTANT
In the event of an ink spill on the rail, it should be cleaned immediately,
before the bearings have a chance to run over the spill. After the area has
been cleaned, wipe the spill area again thoroughly with a water-
moistened lint-free cloth to remove any chemical residue before running
the gantry over the area again. Slight ink stains that remain on the rail
after cleaning are not a major problem.
Procedure
1.
Open the Maintenance Station cover to ensure that there is no possible
gantry or carriage movement.
2.
Use a dry lint-free cloth to remove any visible debris that has accumulated
next to the runner bearing shields. It is only necessary to clean the outside
bearing shields. When removing debris always wipe away from the shields
so you don't push dust into the bearing block.
3. Wipe any debris from the gantry rails. Do this gently so that you do not
remove the grease that lubricates the bearings as they move along the
rails.
4.
Close the Maintenance Station cover.
