Pipe Guides

Pipe guides center the camera in the pipe,
improve picture quality, and help keep the
lens clear. Use pipe guides when possible
to reduce wear and tear on the camera sys-
tem.
Maintenance and
Support
Cleaning
Clean your system with rags and a soft
nylon brush. If desired, a mild detergent or
disinfectant can be used. Do not use sol-
vents or high pressure water to clean any
part of the system.

Maintaining Components

Camera Head
Scratches on the camera have a minimal ef-
fect on its performance. Do not use scraping
tools or sand the camera to remove scratch-
es.
Push Cable
Run a rag over the push cable and visually
inspect it for cuts and abrasions while push-
ing it back into the drum. Replace or repair
the push cable if the outer jacket is cut or
abraded.

a dry, secure area between -10°C and 70°C

locked area out of the reach of children and
