The exterior surfaces of the equipment should be free of dust, dirt, grease, oil, or fungus.
a. Remove dust and loose dirt with a clean cloth.
WARNING
Adequate ventilation should be provided while using TRICHLORO-
TRIFLUOROETHANE. Prolonged breathing of vapor should be avoided.
The solvent should not be used near heat or open flame; the products
of decomposition are toxic and irritating. Since TRICHLORO-
TRIFLUOROETHANE dissolves natural oils, prolonged contact with
skin should be avoided. When necessary, use gloves which the solvent
cannot penetrate. If the solvent is taken internally, consult a physician
immediately.
b. Remove grease, oil, fungus, and ground-in dirt from the equipment with a cloth dampened
(not wet) with cleaning compound.
c. If the equipment is washed using a water hose, do not direct the water directly at the front
panels of the band-pass filters or at cable connectors. Wipe the equipment after using the water
hose and let sit until dry.
For touch-up painting of bare metal surfaces, first remove rust and corrosion from metal surfaces
with fine sandpaper. Brush two thin coats of paint onto the bare metal to protect it from further
corrosion.
