We started cleaning optical windows for optical levers in EXC. - We removed all windows used for the optical levers from EXC. The number is 16. - We inspected and cleaned 8 windows. All of them were used in -Y side.
What we noticed are - It's not as dirty as IY. - Windows used on the inner shield are clean. - The chamber side of the surface of the windows is dirty not like Ix and Iy.
Uchiyama found line-like scratches or dirt on the surface of the windows (MN_out+X-Y) during the cleaning. I could not clean it with isopropanol and acetone. I may have put it on during the cleaning.

Last Friday, we removed 4 windows that were not used for optical levers. Today, we disassembled the 4 windows into window glasses and frames.
Now 4 window glasses are kept in the desiccator beside IMC. Two frames (TM_out-X-Y, PF_out-X-Y) have been reinstalled in EXC. The rest of the two frames (TM_out-X+Y, PF_out-X+Y) have not been installed yet.
