Installing a Filter Cube

Before installing a filter cube, review the following:
Access only the user-serviceable components inside the enclosure as described in the
procedure. Avoid contact with other components as they can be damaged or knocked
out of alignment.
To prevent dust from collecting inside the instrument, keep all access doors closed
unless you are performing maintenance tasks.
Ensure that all components and access doors are closed before starting the instrument.
In addition, observe the following when handling a filter cube:
Molecular Devices precalibrates the filter cubes to specific slots in the turret. You must install
the filter cubes as follows:

CAUTION! To prevent skin oils from damaging the optical coatings, Molecular Devices
recommends that you wear powder-free disposable gloves when handling objectives
and filter cubes.
