Lodestar X2 handbook Issue 2, August 2014
Lodestar X2 maintenance
The Lodestar X2 head is designed for a long and reliable lifespan and needs very little maintenance to
keep it in good working order. The only common issue is with dust particles which collect on the CCD
window and can shade areas of the image field. These are best removed with a quick blast of
compressed air from a ‘Dust off’ aerosol, or similar air blower. More permanent marks may be
removed with a drop of alcohol on a ‘microfibre’ lens cloth.
