• Washing hands is necessary in order to avoid grease on the cleaning tis-
sue.
Better, use gloves to avoid finger oil on the glass.
•
Then use the wet lens cleaning tissue (Green Clean LC-7010) until there is
•
only a thin film of detergent visible.
• After that use the dry lens cleaning tissue (Green Clean LC-7010) to
remove any remaining detergent.
If any smears from cleaning are visible against back light, repeat the proce-
•
dure.
Do not use air from the pneumatic power system as this is always slightly
•
oily!

Filter Cleaning Procedure

If the BLK2GO reaches high temperature it is indicated by the temperature
warning light. If this occurs after few minutes of operation and in standard
working conditions it can be necessary to clean the fine filter cartridge.
The instructions to clean the fine filter cartridge must be followed as described
in this chapter.
Make sure that the cleaning procedure is carried out very carefully. The instru-
ment must be opened, with the potential risk of dust entering the system.
NOTICE
Run the device without filter cartridge and filter cover
If the device is used without filter cartridge and filter cover, dust will suck
inside and irretrievably damage inner components.
Precautions:
▶
Do not run the device without the filter cartridge and the filter cover prop-
erly mounted!
CAUTION
Before any cleaning procedure, ensure that the instrument is switched off and
the battery has been removed.
☞ Always work in a very clean indoor environment, with no draft nor
breeze. Do the cleaning as fast as possible and do not leave the sys-
tem open for a long time.
Do not use water to clean the filters.
☞
1. Open the handle by removing the cover sheet.
2. To remove the fine filter cartridge:
a) Grab the bottom flap with your thumb and index finger.
b) Gently push the fine filter cartridge towards the impeller and
raise up the bottom part of it.
c) Slide the fine filter cartridge back few millimeters, then remove
it.
3. Close the impeller suction side with its proper plug after the removal
of the fine filter cartridge.
