If the filter becomes clogged or unusable for any reason, order a new air filter. The PA-4 filter part number is 40330-11200.
Chapter 6 - Maintenance 6.2 PA-4 Power Chassis Circuit Breaker and Fuse Information Chassis Circuit Breaker The power chassis circuit breaker is rated at 15 A, and is located on the lower-left front of the chassis, on the power entry module. It also functions as an on/off switch to isolate the chassis. CAUTION: If the circuit breaker trips it indicates an internal fault. Do not reset the circuit breaker yourself: Contact Adept Customer Service (see Section 1.4 on page 13).
Removing and Installing Amplifier and Control Modules WARNING: Do not attempt to install or remove any amplifier modules without first turning off the power to the power chassis and all related external power supplies. Failure to observe this warning could cause injury or damage to your equipment. Removing Amplifier Modules CAUTION: Do not expose the amplifier modules to electrostatic discharge (ESD) while you are handling or storing them.
