Cleaning and Storage  

4.1.

 

Cleaning  

Remove dust and debris with a dry cloth.  If moisture is required for more thorough 

cleaning, the metal parts can be cleaned with a damp cloth, and if needed with mild 

dishwashing  detergent,  or  dry-steamed  with  a  commercial  dry-steaming  machine. 

Avoid using running water or spray detergents.   

Prevent  immersing  in  water  or  water  entering  and/or  accumulating  in  the  indent 

locking point of the Tweezle O, or any part of the communication system.  Always clean 

away from the opening of the indent locking point. 

4.2.

 

Storage  

Cleaning and lubricating should be done before any long-term storage.  Store in a cool 

and  dry  environment,  away  from  light  and  heat  sources.  Care  should  be  taken  to 

protect Tweezle O from coming into contact with any acidic or dangerous chemicals.

manufacturer  and  must  not  affect  the  functionality  and  safety  of  any  other  safety 

system.

clearances. Prior to use, make sure all procedures and instructions are adhered to.  

 

Determine  possible  fall  clearances  per  jurisdictional  regulations  and  equipment 

manufacturer operations manual.   

 

Protect life safety lines, PPE, and all accessories from fire and heat, from sharp edges
