7.2 Exchanging the Fibre Screen

•In Standby, briefly press the “PHASE” button to position the shutter so the mirror surface is protected from damage as far as possible Aphoto.

•Before exchanging the fibre screen, switch the camera’s main switch off and disconnect the camera from the power supply!

•Remove the lens or the protective cap.

Do not touch the mirror surface!

•Using the special forceps (Hirschmann Clamp) from the camera‘s toolkit, pull the fibre screen Aphoto out of the holder by its tongue Aphoto.

•Check that both the fibre screen to be inserted and its frame are completely clean.

•With the special forceps, push the chosen fibre screen into the holder as far as it will go. A sprung-ball catch fixes the fibre screen exactly in the right position.

•Check that the fibre screen is correctly locked in place.
