The FL600 requires regular, systematic maintenance to guarantee that it
will run in top form. This includes regularly cleaning the reader’s exterior,
changing its air filter, and replacing its lamp.

Dust can affect flourescence values. The FL600 air filter should be
cleaned or replaced once every six months, more often if your site is
especially dusty.
Step 1:
To access the air filter, snap the fan cover away from the right hand
underside of the reader (on the same side as the plate transport), by
grabbing it between your thumb and forefinger and pulling
downward. (See Figure 4-1 and Figure 4-2.)
