• Only use cleaning fluid WITHOUT alcohol or acetone to clean the optics.
We recommend alcohol-free lens cleaner that can be found in most optical
supply stores.
• In the event acetone accidentally comes in contact with the mirror or lens,
IMMEDIATELY rinse with water (distilled, if possible).
• Turn the scanner off before cleaning the optics.
What's needed:
• Compressed air spray (oil-free - optical supply store)
• Alcohol free cleaning fluid in spray bottle / dropping bottle
• 1 Package lens tissue (optical supply store)
• 1 Package laboratory cloths (lint-free)
• 1 Pair of tweezers or forceps
• 1 Pair of non-powdered gloves
Additionally for a greatly contaminated mirror:
• Mild neutral soap (optical supply store)
Slightly Contaminated Mirror
Handling lens tissue: Fold two or three pieces of lens tissue and clamp them in
the tweezers or forceps.
• First, use a little compressed air spray (oil-free) to clean the surface of the
optics.
