Service & maintenance
Service & maintenance 3
Contact for support
Contact your authorized dealer for technical service and support of the MF/HF
radio. Before contacting your authorized dealer you can go through the
troubleshooting guide to solve some of the most common operational
problems.
Maintenance
Preventive maintenance
Maintenance of the SAILOR 6300 MF/HF DSC can be reduced to a weekly
check and a maintenance check at each visit of the service staff. Inspect the
radio for mechanical damages, salt deposits, corrosion and any foreign
material. Due to its robust construction and ruggedness the radio has a long
lifetime. Anyway it must carefully be checked at intervals not longer than 12
months - dependent on the current working conditions.
Salt deposits
In case the equipment has been exposed to sea water there is a risk of salt
crystallization on the keys and knobs and they may become inoperable. Clean
the MF/HF radio and speaker microphones with fresh water.
