4 Handling and maintenance
4.1 General
The 786 Swing Head requires appropriate care. Excess contamination of the
instrument may result in functional disruptions and a reduction in the service
life of the sturdy mechanics and electronics of the instrument.
Severe contamination can also have an influence on the measured results.
Regular cleaning of exposed parts can prevent this to a large extent.
Spilled chemicals and solvents must be removed immediately.
