When  conditioning  is  completed,  carefully  clean  the  Ceramic  with  a  lint  free  cloth  and  isopropyl 
Alcohol IPA \ Ethanol. Do not remove the motor from the base  during cleaning. 

 

!  General  remark

:  Conditioning should be repeated if the motor is removed from the  stage and 

then reinstalled or if the preload is released. 

 

4.1.

 

MAINTENANCE 

The SE motors have no user repairable or replaceable parts. However, the user might need to clean 
the motor tips and ceramic drive plane from time-to-  time. The frequency of cleaning depends on 
the operating environment and  type of operating conditions. 

 

Do not remove the cover of the SE motor. The motor has high  voltage inside 

when power is applied. 

 

To clean the motor tips and ceramic plane: 

1.  Remove power from the motor. 

2.  Turn  the  turn  the  pre-load  screw  such  that the dot  is facing  away  from the 

motor tips. 

3.  Loosen the motor mounting screws. 

4.  Wipe  the  Drive  Strip  and  motor  tips  using  a  piece  of  lint  free  cloth  and 

isopropyl alcohol or ethanol. 

5.  Reset the motor according to the procedures in Motor Installation. 

6.  Perform motor conditioning (Caution ! Do not use abrasive methods to clean 

the ceramic and/or the motor tips).
