PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
INTRODUCTION
Preventive maintenance consists of cleaning,
visual inspection, and checking instrument per
formance. When performed regularly, it may
prevent instrument malfunction and enhance instru

which the , instrument is used determines the
required frequency of maintenance. An appropriate
time to accomplish preventive maintenance is just
before instrument adjustment.

any other type of cleaner, consult your
Tektronix Service Center or representative.
INSPECTION AND CLEANING
The instrument should be inspected and cleaned as
often as operating conditions require. Accumulation
of dust in the instrument can cause overheating and
component breakdown. Dust on components acts
as an insulating blanket, preventing efficient heat
dissipation, it also provides an electrical conduction
