This manual outlines the assembly, adjustment, and maintenance procedures for Silhouette eyewear, specifically focusing on the Studio Collection. The instructions detail how to handle various components of the glasses, including the temples and lens fixations, to ensure proper fit and longevity.
The process of disassembling the temples involves using a specialized tool, the AC 336 disassembly tool. To begin, the tool is placed between the lens and the temple, utilizing the appropriate diameter on the tool for a secure fit. Once positioned, the temple is closed, and pressure is applied behind the disassembly tool. This action facilitates the separation of the temple from the lens, allowing for maintenance or replacement.
For mounting the temples, two versions are presented, both emphasizing the importance of proper alignment and pressure. In both versions, the side parts of the temple are positioned at the opening of the SPX temple. Pressure is then applied to secure the side parts in place, ensuring a firm and stable connection. This step is crucial for the structural integrity of the eyewear.
Adjusting the inclination of the temples is a key step in customizing the fit of the glasses. This process begins with dismounting the temple from the frame. Once dismounted, the lens fixation is held securely with mounting pliers, specifically the P 0023 model. With the lens fixation held firmly, the inclination can be adjusted using the pliers. It is important to enclose the loop completely with the side parts of the pliers to achieve the desired angle. This adjustment helps ensure the glasses sit comfortably and correctly on the wearer's face.
The manual also provides instructions for adjusting the temple opening, which can be either reduced or enlarged to suit individual needs.
To reduce the temple opening, the temple is first dismounted. The lens fixation is then held firmly with pliers. To prevent the lens from slipping during this process, the pliers should be supported with the thumb. Pressure is then applied against a safe edge of a table to reduce the temple opening. This method allows for a controlled and precise reduction in the temple's width.
To enlarge the temple opening, the temple is again dismounted, and the lens fixation is held firmly with pliers. Long nose pliers are used to bend the side parts, thereby increasing the temple opening. A crucial note for this procedure is to protect the side parts with plastic or leather to prevent any damage during the bending process. This ensures that the adjustment is made without compromising the aesthetic or structural integrity of the eyewear.
Curving the temple ends is an important step for achieving a comfortable and secure fit behind the ears. This process involves making large movements to shape the temple ends. It is explicitly stated that heat should not be applied, nor should the temples be folded during this process. The emphasis on large movements and the avoidance of heat and folding indicates that the material is designed to be shaped through gentle, broad adjustments rather than sharp bends or thermal manipulation. This method helps maintain the material's integrity and prevents damage.
The instructions provided in this manual are designed to guide users through the essential steps of assembling, adjusting, and maintaining Silhouette eyewear. By following these procedures, users can ensure that their glasses are properly fitted, comfortable, and durable. The use of specific tools, such as the AC 336 disassembly tool and P 0023 mounting pliers, highlights the precision required for these tasks. The detailed steps for adjusting inclination and temple opening allow for a high degree of customization, catering to diverse wearer needs. Furthermore, the guidelines for temple curving emphasize careful handling to preserve the quality and longevity of the eyewear. Adherence to these instructions will contribute to the optimal performance and extended lifespan of Silhouette Studio Collection glasses.
