MAINTENANCE

In order that the machine functions correctly, the following maintenance operations must be carried out after completion of polishing operations.

5.1CLEANING AFTER POLISHING

￿After finishing polishing, or when stopping polishing for a period of time, clean the OFL-12 as well as all of the polishing films carefully with water. If no cleaning is done, the remaining polishing fluid will harden. Also make sure that no waterdrops remain on the operation panel.

￿When the OFL-12 won’t be used for a long time, ultrasonically clean the holding jig in ethyl alcohol, then oil the holding jig and keep it in a vinyl envelope.

5.2CHANGING THE POLISHING FILM

￿The standard lifetime of a sheet of polishing film is 10 uses (120 ferrules maximum) (for the abrasive paper for adhesive removal the lifetime is only one use).
