electrode collars against the electrode fixtures Incorrect installation of the electrodes may result in greater
splice loss or damage to the circuit.

4.2.2 Cleaning Objective Lenses
If the surfaces of the objective lenses become dirty, normal observation of the core position may be incorrect,
resulting in higher splice loss or poor splicer operation. Therefore, clean them at regular intervals. Otherwise, dirt
may accumulate and become impossible to remove.
1) Before cleaning the objective lenses, always turn off the splicer.
2) Gently clean the lens surface with an alcohol-soaked thin cotton swab as shown in Fig.4-7. Using a cotton
swab, starting in the center of the lens, move the swab in a circular motion until you spiral to the edge of
the lens surface. Remove excess alcohol from the mirror surface with a clean dry swab.

Check: Use a high quality alcohol, greater than 99% pure.

Check: Be careful not to bend the electrodes.
