Maintenance Guidelines

Regularly inspect the pen's ink level and writing quality, and replace it when the ink is depleted or the writing becomes faint. Always use Dickson chart pens with your recorder model to ensure accurate recordings. Store replacement pens in a clean, dry location to prevent contamination or ink degradation.

When replacing the pen point, lift the pen arm gently away from the chart, remove the depleted pen, and install the new TE-160 securely in the pen holder. Lower the pen arm back onto the chart to resume continuous recording.
