Usage Instructions
Combination Cleaning with the QbE
• Pull one QbE Wipe over the fiber-safe foam
platen.
• Hold the end face at a 90 degree perpendicular
to the platen.
• Draw the end face lightly from the solvent wetted
area to the dry area over the platen, using a
smooth linear motion - do not press too hard.
• Do not retrace your cleaning procedure in the
same area.
• Do not use a figure-eight motion; do not use a
“twist & turn” motion.
• Check your work with a fiber scope or measuring
device.
For Splice Preparation
• Lightly moisten QbE wipe and gently wipe away
fiber contaminants.
• Lightly dampen a 38540ESD swab, remove soil
from V-grooves on fusion splicer.
Buffer Gel Removal
• Pull three single QbE Wipers out of the container.
• Spray a small amount of Electro-Wash PX Fiber
Optic Cleaner into the folded wipers.
• Pull the cable through the first wiper and discard.
• Repeat until the cable “squeaks” clean.
