3.2 INSPECTION / CLEANING

The operator should inspect the ATPIAL before each use

and after it has been in extreme conditions, such as

prolonged exposure to intense temperatures. The following

procedures will prolong the life of the ATPIAL and help

ensure safe operation.

WARNING

Isopropyl alcohol is flammable and toxic. To avoid

injury, keep away from open fire and use in a well

ventilated area.

ATPIAL Housing

Inspect the ATPIAL housing for any signs of damage

including cracks, missing parts, and any other visible

defects. Rinse thoroughly with water or mild soap and

water, then wipe clean with a soft cloth. If necessary, clean

around buttons, switches, adjusters, and attachment points

using fresh water and a cotton swab.

Battery Compartment / Cap

Inspect the battery compartment for dirt, dust, or corrosion.

Dirt or debris that cannot be shaken loose from the battery

compartment may be removed using a cotton swab. Clean

the threaded portions of the battery cap and battery

compartment using a cotton swab dipped in isopropyl

alcohol. If necessary, clean battery contacts with a pencil

eraser or cotton swab dipped in isopropyl alcohol.

Periodically lubricate the battery compartment o-ring with

fluorinated grease. Replace the o-ring if it becomes cut,

nicked, or dried out (see section 3.3, Replacing Battery

Compartment O-Ring).
