LID system
The LID system is a sensitive opto-electronic system.
You should therefore ensure it is always clean.
Cleaning Clean the LID system using the groove cleaners, the cleaning tool and one of the
leather swabs included in the tool bag.
Cleaning the
groove
Clean the groove in which the fiber is inserted using a groove cleaner (see next figure).
Pull the tip of the groove cleaner through the groove. Always clean from the inside out-
wards!
You can use the groove cleaner several times.
Cleaning the Groove
Input and output
areas
Use the cleaning tool to remove dirty index-matching fluid from the input and output
areas.
Insert a leather swab in the notch in the swab holder.
When performing cleaning, turn the tool so that the leather swab wraps around the tool
(see next figure).
You can use each leather swab until it loses its absorbency.
Removing the Index-Matching Fluid
Clean the other parts of the LID system using a non-linting paper cloth.
