Types of Common Lens Problems

1. Dirty Lens - The most common problem with your laser unit
is a dirty lens. The easiest way to determine whether you
have a dirty lens is to look at the lens under direct light. If
you see smudges, finger prints, or small particles on the lens,
the beam emitted will look similar to the above pictures.
Simply follow the cleaning instructions to restore the spot
back to a focused dot.
2. Scratched Lens - A scratched lens may occur if you
accidentally scratch the lens with a hard or rough surface.
The lens of your laser unit is similar to that of a camera,
please handle with care. This condition can be repaired
by Wicked Lasers, however, will not be covered in your
warranty. A repair cost will apply.
