Clean all parts with distilled water. Thereafter dry them carefully. 

 

If the glass ring becomes irreversibly opaque it must be replaced. 

 

Equally the O rings can be exchanged if need be. 

 

The lid is assembled on a flat surface with the aid of the assembly stamp. 

 

Place the glass ring in the cap insert. Put the cap insert on the pins of the assembly 
stamp. 

 

Put the coupling cap on the cap insert and press the cap on. 

 

Rotate the assembly stamp in a position that the connecting fitting can be screwed 
in. Screw in the connecting fitting. 

 

Insert the glass prism in the coupling cap. Thereby the side with the polarization foils
