How to prevent water damage/infiltration into Mach-1 motors
When using water or other solution with the Biomomentum Mach-1, it is possible to misuse the accessories and leak water into the Mach-1's motors underneath.
To prevent water damage in the Mach-1 X, Y and Torsion axes, it is recommended to use bench paper with a plastic backing.
For example, "Versi-Dry Standard Absorbancy Roll" or any absorbent
paper with plastic backing would work.
