I have never had a repair on my machine that is close to 25 years old. We all follow our own rules and that is OK..Whatever works!

you point the nozzle away from the main computer components, so to the left of the machine where it wouldnt' cause the damage. I asked that same question to the woman who offered the class. She services machines for a living. I figured she would have the right answers. By pointing the nozzle that way the lint will keep away from where we don't want it.
