Maintenance

Daily maintenance

The MSRC605 is a complex integrated product, in order to keep stable working, daily maintenance is need.

Cleaning the magnetic head

When reading and writing fault happened for many times, the magnetic head should be cleaned.

a. Pull the cleaning card backwards and forwards 5-10 times;

b. If the magnetic head is very dirty, firstly make the cleaning card wet through alcohol then to pull cleaning card several times, after then using the dried cleaning card to pull several times.

Cleaning the roller of the encoder

a. Firstly make the cleaning card wet through alcohol then to pull cleaning card 5-10 times;

b. Using the dried cleaning card to pull several times.
