6.1 Maintenance

If the instrument is used properly, no special maintenance is required 

in normal operation.

6.2  Rectify faults

The operator of the system is responsible for taking suitable meas-

ures to rectify faults.

The first measure to be taken is to check the input/output signal as 

well as the power supply. In many cases, the causes can be deter-

mined and faults can be quickly rectified.

On-site repair of B61-300 is not possible.
