REMOVE SOUND FOAM.
NOTE
If replacing the sound foam on a
hinged
access
door,
it
is
recommended
that
the
door
be
removed from the machine to prevent
pieces of the sound foam from falling
into the engine compartment.
a.
Pull sound foam (38) from surface of
access door or access cover. Sound
foam may come off in pieces. Remove as
much as possible by hand. Use a putty
knife to help scrape sound foam from
surface of access door or access cover.
Cleaning solvent, PD680, is TOXIC
and flammable. Wear protective
goggles and gloves. Use only in a
well ventilated area. Avoid contact
with skin, eyes, and clothes, and do
not breathe vapors. Keep away from
heat or flame. Never smoke when
using solvent; the flashpoint for Type
III cleaning solvent is 200°F (93,3°C).
Failure to do so may result in injury
or death to personnel.
If personnel become dizzy when
using cleaning solvent, immediately
get fresh air and medical help. If
solvent contacts skin or clothes,
flush with cold water. If solvent
contacts eyes, flush eyes with water
and get immediate medical attention.
b.
Use a cleaning cloth and solvent to
remove
sound
foam
adhesive
from
surface of access door. If necessary,
soak adhesive and sound foam residue
with solvent for 15 minutes. Use a putty
knife and cleaning solvent to remove any
remaining sound foam and adhesive.
c.
When all adhesive has been removed,
wipe dry with a cleaning cloth.
