Cleaning disk packs

11 Dec 2006

...
    I have an automatic pack cleaner for RL01/02 packs.

 I have one for RK05 cartridges.
 Very funny to see it in operation, a little arm with cleanin pads
 attached
 to it move very slowely out and in while the disk spins at around 3 - 5
 rpm. 
 If that's the official DEC one, then the one for RL packs is the same
 apart from the bits that hold the pack (they are quite hard to tell
 apart, therefore). I found that out the hard way when scavenging with a
 friend, we foudn 2 of the machines, assumed they were the same and took
 one each. He got the TK05 one, I got the RL one...

It is the official DEC one (grey plastic, about 60 by 60 cm).
When I found it, it came with 2 boxes of pads and three sealed
iso-propyl containers. The iso-propyl did vaporise through the
seals over time.
