[. . . ] FPG 45 CROSSFADER Service Instructions for Penny & Giles X3000 Series Crossfader Introduction Servicing is limited to cleaning, re-lubrication and replacement of some components, such as the slider and track assembly. Periodic maintenance provides a smooth operating feel and extends the life of the fader. [. . . ] If the slider bearings are excessively worn, as seen by excessive slider rocking, a replacement assembly should be fitted. Clean the guide rod, using a tissue or cloth, removing all traces of dirt or contamination. Remove the track by carefully withdrawing from the unit and placing face up on the desk. It may be cleaned with a lint free cloth, rubbing firmly along the track so no debris remains. If necessary, the track can be washed in warm water, wiped gently and then dried thoroughly using a dry cloth. When dry, wipe with a lint free cloth and check for marks along the track. (Note: Lint-free clothes are recommended to avoid dust or fibers from being deposited). If the track appears worn, or if cleaning does not improve operation, replacement may be necessary. 4. Examine the centre channel of the fader body and if dirty, clean using cotton buds. Re-assemble and lubricate the fader as follows: a) Hold the fader body so the end block is to your right, as shown below (the label may be on either side). a) Insert the slider assembly onto the guide rod and into the fader body, with the contacts facing away from you. b) Insert the track into the back of the fader body with the track contacts facing you (to meet the slider contacts). [. . . ] Once assembled, move the slider from end to end and ensure operation is smooth. ©Rane Corporation 10802 47th Ave. W. , Mukilteo WA 98275-5098 USA TEL 425-355-6000 FAX 425-347-7757 WEB www. rane. com Part 13264 [. . . ]
