9. Maintenance
1. Clean the rain gauge once every 3 months as follows. Reference Figure 36.
Step 1: Make a note of the current rain totals by referencing the calibration panel (reference
Section 5.9.5.1. You will need to re-enter these values after the calibration procedure it
complete.
Step 2: Pour water into the rain collector to moisturize the dirt inside rain bucket.
Step 3: Use an approximately 3 inch (80 mm) long cotton swab, and push the cotton tip
through the rain collector hole until is reaches the self emptying mechanism, and press until
the mechanism no longer rotates.
Step 4: Rotate the cotton swab back and forth, removing dirt from the tipping mechanism and
rain collector hole.
Step 5: Remove the cotton swab and flush with water to remove any remaining dirt.
Step 6: Re-enter the rain totals recorded in Step 1.
