6  Transportation, storage and maintenance 

 
When  unpacking  the  TrackMan™  Radar  Unit  from  the  original  shipping  box,  remember  to 
store the box for future use. The original shipping box must be used in case of return of unit 
for service or repair.  
 

6.1  Transportation 

The construction of the TrackMan™ Radar Unit is in general very robust. However, the front 
of the radar is a bit more sensitive. During transportation the TrackMan™ Radar Unit should 
be protected from direct shocks and bumps on the front window.  
 
The TrackMan™ Radar Unit is designed to fit into a carrier-on luggage for the airlines. It is 
recommended  to  enclose  the  TrackMan™  Radar  Unit  with  foam  or  other  shock  absorbing 
materials when packed in a box or bag. 
 
If the TrackMan™ Radar Unit is send by cargo, which is not recommended, allow for at least 
50 mm of space from the metallic chassis of the TrackMan™ Radar Unit to the shipping box 
sides, by using heavy duty shock damping materials.  

 

6.2  Maintenance 

 
The  TrackMan™  Radar  Unit  has  been  constructed  in  robust  materials  with  minimum 
maintenance for years of outdoor usage. 
 
The TrackMan™ Radar Unit contains only highly reliable electronic and mechanical systems 
that require no user maintenance.  
 
When  the  two  legs  of  the  TrackMan™  Radar  Unit  are  extended  there  can  be  some  water, 
mud, or dirt on them after use. To remove this, use a soft cloth to wipe it of. There are two O-
rings that make sure that no dirt, water or mud gets inside the TrackMan™ Radar Unit. If the 
legs are cleaned very thoroughly, a small amount of grease has to be added on the legs in front 
of the O-rings. 
  
The front of the TrackMan™ Radar Unit can be wiped with a soft damp cloth. Make sure that 
the front is not damaged. In the case that the front plate is damaged DO NOT try to open the 
TrackMan™ Radar Unit, nor try to change the front plate. 
 

WARNING! 

Security screws are mounted on the back of the TrackMan™ Radar Unit. If the seal is 

broken the warranty agreement will terminate immediately. 

 
The  camera  window  has  to  be  cleaned  once  in  a  while.  Use  regular  window  cleaning 
detergent. Be careful not to scratch the window glass.
