Care
Keeping all optical components clean is
O
important for maintaining good optical
performance.
If any optical surface becomes badly coated
O
with dust or dirt brush it off with a camel
hair brush before attempting to wipe it
clean.
Optical surfaces should be cleaned using
O
a lint-free cloth, lens cloth or cotton swab
soaked in methanol or a commercially
available glass cleaner. Do not use alcohol.
Avoid excessive use of solvents. The lint-
O
free cloth, lens cloth or cotton swab should
only be lightly moistened with solvent.
