Epilog Lens cleaning

The focus lens is contained within the lens tube. The lens tube is a single assembly and is fairly easy to clean.

1. Remove the lens tube from the machine for cleaning by rotating the front plate upward to reveal the inside of the lens assembly. You may need to loosen the bottom captive screw slightly first.

2. After swinging the lens plate cover out of the way, use the tip of the focus gauge in one of the holes in the ridged ring at the top of the lens tube to loosen it slightly.

3. Unplug the air assist tube from the top of the lens assembly.

4. The lens tube then slides out of the front of the lens assembly.

5. Twist off the cone piece at the bottom of the tube to reveal the bottom side of the lens.

6. To clean the lens, use a high-quality cotton swab moistened with the optics cleaner supplied in the accessory kit. Please read the label on the bottle carefully.

7. Allow the optics to dry, then twist the cone piece securely back on to the bottom of the lens tube.

8. Slide the lens tube back into the lens assembly making sure the air assist port is facing the right side. Then connect the top of the air assist tube back to the port on the lens assembly.

9. Tighten the ridged ring at the top of the lens tube using the focus gauge.
