1780R-Series Service Manual
The instrument should be cleaned often enough to prevent dust and dirt from
accumulating. Dirt acts as a thermal insulator, preventing effective heat
dissipation, and can also provide high-resistance electrical leakage paths between
conductors or components in a humid environment.

CAUTION. Do not allow water to get inside any enclosed assembly or component.
Do not clean any plastic materials with benzene, toluene, xylene, acetone, or
similar compounds, because they may damage the plastic.

Clean the dust from the outside of the instrument with a soft cloth or small
brush. A brush is especially useful for removing dust from around the selector
buttons, knobs, and connectors. Hardened dirt may be removed using a cloth
dampened with a mild detergent and water solution. Abrasive cleaners should not
be used.

Visual Inspection
After cleaning, check the instrument carefully for improperly seated transistors
or integrated circuits, defective connections, and damaged parts. To prevent
additional damage, in the case of heat-damaged parts, determine the cause of
overheating before replacing the damaged part.
