4.3 St<strong>or</strong>ing and Shipping the Mirr<strong>or</strong> Head<br />

When the mirr<strong>or</strong> head is not in use, replace the oval protective cover so that<br />

it covers and protects the mirr<strong>or</strong>. If you ever have to ship the mirr<strong>or</strong> head,<br />

also reposition the lens tape.<br />

4.4 Replacing the Mirr<strong>or</strong><br />

The <strong>FSM</strong> is designed so that the user can replace the mirr<strong>or</strong> assembly in the<br />

event that the <strong>or</strong>iginal mirr<strong>or</strong> has been damaged <strong>or</strong> different spectral<br />

characteristics are required. <strong>FSM</strong> mirr<strong>or</strong>s bonded to a metal carrier are<br />

available from Newp<strong>or</strong>t as subassemblies. Hex wrenches are required tools<br />

f<strong>or</strong> mirr<strong>or</strong> removal and reinstallation. The <strong>FSM</strong>-<strong>300</strong> requires 0.050” hex<br />

wrenches. The <strong>FSM</strong>-<strong>320</strong> requires 1/16” and 5/64” hex wrenches. Use of<br />

Loctite 222 thread locker on mounting screws is recommended.<br />

Figure 7: Replacement of <strong>FSM</strong>-<strong>300</strong> mirr<strong>or</strong> carrier.<br />

To remove the mirr<strong>or</strong> carrier, first remove the front protective cover plate.<br />

To do so, remove the four retaining socket head cap screws using the<br />

appropriate hex wrench. Then remove the mirr<strong>or</strong> carrier. To do so, remove<br />

the four retaining socket head cap screws using the appropriate hex wrench.<br />

Reverse the process to install the new mirr<strong>or</strong> carrier. Application of Loctite<br />

222 thread locker to each of the mounting screws is recommended.<br />

CAUTION<br />

The mirr<strong>or</strong> surface is extremely delicate. Wear latex gloves to<br />

minimize the possibility of fingerprints. Be extremely careful not<br />

to scratch the mirr<strong>or</strong> surface with the wrench <strong>or</strong> cap screws.
