  • Use a small pin, such as a paper clip, to push the tab of the Protective Window mounted into the metal housing located at the distal end of the Fiber.
  • Gently pull the loosened Protective Window from the distal end of the Trunk Fiber.

Step 3: Insert the New Protective Window

  • Insert the replacement Protective Window by aligning the tab of the Protective Window to the rectangular opening of the metal bearing and gently insert into place.
  • The tab of the Protective Window should snap into the rectangular opening.

Step 4: Wrapping Up

  • Discard the burned/damaged Protective Window into a normal disposal bin.
  • Re-attach the Handpiece on the distal end of the Trunk Fiber.
  • Prime the laser before use.
