I'd be wary of using one of the integral brushes that come with cleaning fluid tho.

I imagine the fluid could go anywhere.
Good point. And I suspect that’s Ortofon’s concern. Alcohol evaporates pretty swiftly, and if brushed forwards only as recommended, then I think one is pretty safe. But caution is the operative word and yours seems well placed.

yes i have avoided brush with fluids. Following some comments above, and i bought this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/313841513923 which hopefully does the same job in a less fancy design as the flux hifi £115 cleaner which i couldn't really justify. Funnily enough there is now a Goldring and AT637 cleaner on eBay, not cheap, amazing if they work after all these years!

No reason why they shouldn't, have had my AT637 since May 87, cost me £7.99 new, and all good. The Goldring works as it should as well.
