5.2 SGF-60 Flashhead
Normal maintenance of the Flashhead requires periodic cleaning of the window with a
non-abrasive soap.
WARNING!
Ensure that the power is off and the energy storage capacitors have
been discharged before opening the Flashhead. Do not put hands or
tools in the Flashhead until the High Voltage Indicator neon lamp DS1
on the High Voltage & Trigger board is extinguished. Refer to Figure
1-2, Page 1-3, for the location of High Voltage Indicator DS1 - do not
confuse the High Voltage Indicator DS1, with the PWR ON lamp DS1.
Note that it is possible for the High Voltage Indicator DS1 to be lit even
when the PWR ON lamp DS1 if off. If this happens, the energy storage
capacitors C1 - C3 must be discharged before performing maintenance.
5.2.1 Flashtube Replacement
