Maintaining Your Kinetix 3
Drive
The Kinetix 3 is designed to function with a minimum of maintenance.
Consider these guidelines to maintain your Kinetix 3 drive:
•
Clean the drive periodically, by using an OSHA approved nozzle that
provides compressed air under low pressure, less than 20 kPa (30 psi), to
blow the exterior surface and the vents clean.
•
Visually inspect all cables for abrasion.
•
Inspect cable connectors for proper seating and signal continuity end-to-
end.
