Section 3: Cleaning Procedures
** Clean Wipers
Do not touch Wipers. Oil from your hands may prevent the wipers from cleaning the
head properly.
1. The wipers can be cleaned using either the foam swabs or the lint free cloth. Either Eco-
cleaning solution or Isopropyl Alcohol may be used in conjunction with the cleaning
utensil of choice.

** Clean around caps
Do not touch the Rubber Caps. Oil from your hands may prevent the caps from
sealing properly.
1. Using either a foam swab or a lint free cloth soaked in Eco-cleaning solution or Isopropyl
Alcohol, wipe around the edges of the rubber caps. This ensures a good seal is
maintained during head cleaning process.
