Replacing the Flashlamp
The flashlamp is provided in the laser chamber and used for excitation at laser
oscillation. We recommend replacing the ashlamp when the number of laser outputs
reaches about 1,000,000 shots, as standard.
CAUTION
When replacing the ashlamp, turn OFF the power to the Laser and wait for at least 5
minutes.
