Clean the Lid

NOTICE

To avoid damage, do not use flammable liquids or other chemicals to clean the equipment.

The lid contains the steam, mist, and particles emitted while cutting. Cutting underwater and using the nozzle splash guard helps limit the amount of particle emission into the enclosure. Cleaning the lid after each cut is a best practice. See the Maintenance Schedule for the recommended frequency for this task.
