Q: How should I store start systems and consoles?

Turn off all equipment with an on/off power switch before storing it. Store the equipment in a dry, secure location to protect it from damage and keep it in good working condition.

Q: Deckplate Maintenance

To keep your deck plate or cable harness connectors in top shape, occasional deep cleaning is essential. Here’s how: Add a few drops of rubbing alcohol to the connector and let it sit for a few minutes to dissolve any corrosion. Use a folded soft pipe cleaner with a plunging motion to clean inside the connector. Avoid anything abrasive that could scratch the surface. Rinse the connector with a damp pipe cleaner, then dry it with a clean, dry one, ensuring no fibers are left behind. Apply a small amount of silicone grease to a clean pipe cleaner and gently coat the inside of the connector. With these steps, your connectors will stay clean and corrosion-free!
