5.2. Cleaning the lenses
INFO
Laser optics are highly sensitive and their surfaces are not as hard as traditional
glass. They can also be easily
damaged by cleaning. It is therefore necessary to ensure that any dirt is removed using a suitable blowing device
and that the surrounding
area is cleaned regularly.
ATTENTION
Never touch the optical components with your fingers! Oily or dirty hands may damage the lens surfaces.
To remove larger pieces of dirt, blow the lens with the use of hand air dust blower.
After removing the hard and bigger pieces of dust use a soft lens cleaning cloth in conjunction with high proof
(min. 99 %) isopropyl alcohol or special lens cleaning liquid.
Do not dip the cleaning cloth into the cleaning solution. This contaminates the solution and makes it unusable.
Place drops of the solution on the cloth!
Apply the cleaning solution carefully in order to avoid scratching the surface of the lens.
Do not use any tools or hard objects to clean the surfaces. Scratches cannot be repaired.
Small blows should be used to remove dust.
Do not use compressed air as it contains small quantities of oil and water.
Distribute the cleaning fluid carefully using small circular motions. Start at the center of the lens and move
outwards to the edge. Keep moving the cloth until the entire surface is clean.
Do not exert any pressure on the lens.
