SETTING UP BRUTE 20/20 INSPECTION SYSTEM
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS:
The following maintenance procedures are recommended for all BRUTE 20/20
Systems. Standard warranty policy dictates that components and accessories
subject to wear and tear are not covered under the One (1) year warranty.
Therefore we are strongly recommending that all systems be maintained according
to the following procedures. Please be advised that BRUTE 20/20 will not allow
warranty coverage for these items if these procedures are not followed.
BRUTE 20/20 COMMAND MODULE:
The BRUTE 20/20 command module incorporates a USB port as its standard
recording device. This port has no moving parts or recording heads so it does not
require a cleaning device. However, if water, dirt or dust become present in this
connector due to extreme conditions in the field, owners/operators will be
responsible for the cleaning of the connector/port area using a Q-tip or other non-
abrasive cleaning tool to remove the debris before inserting a memory stick.
Operating the Command Module:
Warning: All Jetters Northwest
command modules are not water proof.
Jetters Northwest assumes no liability for
any water damage, caused directly or
indirectly, by improper usage of the
system. Damage to the system
components, the internal mother board,
and injury to you may result if water is
applied to the command module. Water
damage will not be covered under
warranty, and may be cause for voiding
of command module warranty.
4
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS PROCEDURE INVALIDATES ANY WARRANTY
CLAIM AGAINST BRUTE 20/20 FOR THE FUNCTIONALITY OF THE
RECORDING DEVICE AND WARRANTY COVERAGE WILL NOT BE
GRANTED.

O-Rings: O-rings are critical to insure the watertight integrity of the camera and
connection areas. O-rings are subject to wear and tear and can also suffer failure
due to age and other factors. They should be inspected regularly and replaced
whenever needed.
When O-rings are working properly, a small amount of water and sometimes fine
particles of grit will build up behind them. Any time the camera or sonde
connection is taken apart and exposed, there exists the risk of grit wearing down or
possibly even tearing the o-ring. It is also possible for water to then enter the
connection area once exposed. All connections, once opened or exposed, MUST
be thoroughly cleaned and dried before re-connecting. We recommend using an
old toothbrush or other soft bristled brush to clean the o-ring areas and remove the
grit or fine debris. Then, completely dry the area around male and female
connector and the o-ring before re-connecting.
Camera Head: All BRUTE 20/20 camera heads are covered for one (1) year under
the standard warranty against all defects in workmanship. These cameras are all
sealed and water proof. Warranty coverage will apply for any and all internal
failures to the camera head unless external damage is evident. This would include
a broken window and any deformation to the stainless steel metal housing of the
camera head.
BRUTE 20/20 has provided a small and large protective skid that MUST be used at
all times. These skids are designed to aid in the centering of the camera head and
have the added benefit of helping to protect the camera head from extreme wear.
Failure to use the provided skids will result in the direct wear of the metal,
especially at the front window array, resulting in the eventual wearing down of the
metal. This wear could result in a breach of the window seal allowing water into the
camera head. This type of wear will not be covered under warranty.
Hub Assembly: The hub assembly houses the encoder, the wiring terminals, and
solders joints that are susceptible to water damage. Although it is very well
covered and enclosed, the electronic components are not water proof. Wipe with
damp cloth when cleaning. You will find the warning label on the hub assembly:
CAUTION: DO NOT POWER WASH THE HUB ASSEMBLY AREA.
Push Rod: BRUTE 20/20 push rod terminations are covered for one (1) year under
warranty. This warranty policy covers workmanship on the termination connection
ONLY and does not cover push rod breakage or kinks in other parts of the rod.
