Bubble Handling and Cleaning

 

The bubble is made of acrylic for excellent optical clarity. Special care is required when

 

handling and cleaning the bubble to avoid scratching it.

8.1

Handling

 

The bubble is packaged with a protective plastic sheet. It is recommended that the bubble

 

remain stored this way until it is ready to install. Limit handling the bubble, as any scratches

 

can quickly affect visibility.

8.2

Cleaning

 

If cleaning the bubble is required, use the following procedures and comply with all the

 

warnings listed below.

8.2.1

Cleaning the Bubble Interior

 

The extremely soft interior surface should not be cleaned by rubbing or dusting with a cloth.

 

Use clean dry compressed air, preferably from a spray can, to remove any dust from the

 

interior surface.

 

 

 

WARNING!

 

Do not use alcohol-based solutions to clean the bubble. This will cause the bubble to cloud

 

and over time cause stress aging, which makes the bubble brittle.

 

 

 

Removing the Pendant Bubble

 

Use the following procedure to remove the bubble:

 

1.

Using both hands, apply a counterclockwise (looking up at the dome) rotational force on

 

 

the Pendant Bubble Assembly to set the bubble latch.

 

2.

Insert a small (2 mm) straight blade screwdriver into the latch opening of the bubble

 

 

trim-ring to release the latch. Then remove the screwdriver. See the figure below.

3.Rotate the bubble assembly counterclockwise approximately 20 degrees until the bubble assembly releases from the pendant housing and remove the bubble.

4.To replace the bubble, insert the bubble assembly into the pendant housing, and rotate it clockwise (looking up at the dome) until it locks. The latch mechanism makes a click when it locks.
