To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear, products should be cleaned
frequently. Usage and environment are contributing factors in determining frequency.
As a general rule, products should be cleaned at least twice a month. Dust build up
reduces light output performance and can cause overheating. This can lead to
reduced lamp life and increased mechanical wear. Be sure to power off product before
conducting maintenance.
•
Unplug product from power.
•
Use a vacuum or air compressor and a soft brush to remove dust collected
on external vents.
•
Clean all lenses when the product is cool with a mild solution of glass cleaner
or Isopropyl Alcohol and a soft lint free cotton cloth or lens tissue.
•
Apply solution to the cloth or tissue and drag dirt and grime to the outside of
the lens.
•
Gently polish optical surfaces until they are free of haze and lint.
The cleaning of external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out periodically
to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the
product operates. Damp, smoky or particularly dirty surroundings can cause greater
accumulation of dirt on the unit's optics. Clean with soft cloth using normal glass
