Note:
- Cleaning accessories: The 7W laser module has no removable focus lens or window lens, so only the surface of the laser tube's internal lens needs to be cleaned. The 12W laser module has both a focus lens and a window lens — you may remove the window lens for cleaning, and should also check both lenses for damage.
- Cleaning method: Use 99% anhydrous ethanol or a professional optical lens cleaner (avoid cleaners containing ammonia or acetone). Wipe gently with a lint-free cloth in a single direction (e.g., from the center outward in a spiral); avoid back-and-forth wiping that may cause scratches. After cleaning, inspect the lens surface under strong side lighting to ensure there is no residue or fiber left behind.
- Cleaning frequency: High-frequency users should clean once daily; low-frequency users should clean once weekly.
