2.1. Step

Carefully unpack the TLV-U-FF Filter Cube assembly. Use a Thorlabs SM1
Spanner Wrench (such as Item # SPW602) to remove the retaining rings from
the excitation and emission ports (see Figure 1).
Figure 1 Filter Cube Assembly with Retaining Rings
Note the orientation of the retaining rings. The side of the retaining ring with the
spanner wrench slots should always face away from the cube.
2.2. Step
2
Remove the two screws holding the filter cube together (see Figure 1; Phillips
head, M2 threaded). Carefully separate the two filter cube halves. Take note of
the excitation/emission filter halves (see Figure 2).
