I don;t
knowwhere you get the compressed air from, but some compressors
do put a significant amount of oil in the air. The RK05 manuals warn
aobut this, it's it a very bad idea to put oil on th disk or heads :-)
Good point Tony. Here, I have an oil-less compressor and if I use
tools that require oil, I usually add the oil to the tool or use an
inline oiler at the tool itself. I also have seperate air lines that
are labeled as "oil" and "not oil"... But not all air compressors
and
associated accessories are setup this way... that's for sure.
I am also told that some 'oil-less compessors' are not that good and
still ahve some oil in the output. It may not matter for many
applicaitons, but it does for this.
I am told (but have never tried it) that those
cans of compressed air
used for cleaning cameras, etc, aregood for blowing the dust off
disk packs.
Yes... but I bet you can empty one in short order blowing off both sides
of a whole pack.
Alas, yes... and they're not cheap.
The RK05 manual tells you taht you can blow dry dust off my both, but 'do
not spit on the disk'.
