The electromagnet and the armature should be handled carefully. Any damage to
the surface such as paint, burrs, dirt and rust may hinder bonding of the surface
and reduce holding power.
1. Do not touch lock face with your hands.
2. Use a soft clean dry cloth or abrasive cloth (i.e., Scotch-Brite by 3M) to clean the
lock face. Do not use sand paper.
3. A rust inhibitor, such as M1 manufactured by Starret, or LPS3 manufactured by
LPS Laboratories (available in most hardware stores) can then be applied to the
lock face.
4. Apply a coat of rust inhibitor to the armature face also.
