Maintenance
A regular maintenance schedule should be followed. Proper maintenance will assure better fabrication results. Refrain
from using water in the MiniSTAR S machine. Water may cause certain components to rust or corrode. When the machine
is not being used, engage the clamping frame to the chamber and position the chamber on the pellet cup. This prevents
lab dust from entering the pellet cup and chamber.

Pellets will become dirty with regular use. Clean pellets by
placing them in a strainer and rinsing with hot water. Spread
pellets on a towel and let air dry before placing them back in
the MiniSTAR S. Check pellets monthly. Discard and replace
pellets in the bottom third of the cup.
Air escape holes are present in the base of the pellet cup and
should be checked monthly to ensure that they remain open.
Use a .036 " diameter or smaller wire to open plugged holes.
Clean and inspect top and side of the Adjusting
every 4-6 months.
