Replacing Dichroics/Lithos in the Color Wheel or the Static
Litho Wheel
This section explains how to replace dichroic filters in the color wheel and how to replace lithos in
the static litho wheel. (A dichroic is solid-colored with no etched pattern, while a litho has an
etched pattern.)
Although the lithos and dichroics look different from each other, they are the same size and the
wheels are the same size, so the procedure for replacing them is exactly the same.
You can replace dichroics/lithos if they are damaged or broken, to change the order in their
respective wheels, or to add new ones. (See the section titled "Optional Accessories" on page 1-7
for ordering information.) Dichroics and lithos are also completely interchangeable between
Cyberlight CLs, CXs and SVs.

Position the wheel so the dichroic/litho you wish to replace is easy to access.
This step applies to replacing a litho only. Position the effects wheel so the open position in
the wheel aligns with the litho you wish to replace.
Push the dichroic/litho you wish to replace toward the center of the wheel to free it from the
two wheel tabs as shown in Figure 3-30.
Figure 3-30. Push the dichroic/litho toward the large retaining tab to free it from the
wheel tabs.
Once the dichroic/litho is free of the two wheel tabs, pull it out of the wheel. If you intend to
reuse this dichroic/litho, put it in a safe place where it will not get scratched.
Color wheel only: Orient the dichroic filter so the coated side is facing toward the lamp and
the uncoated, glass side is facing toward the static litho wheel.
Static litho wheel only: Orient the new litho so the etched side is facing away from the lamp
(toward the effects wheel). The glass side must be facing the lamp. Improper installation can
damage the litho.
Install the new dichroic/litho into its wheel by pushing it under the large retaining clip, then
pull it up so it fits under the wheel tabs.
