I have a Speedy 300 with the Iradion tube and my power is down to where I can still etch VERY slowly but cutting anything is not going to happen. I am going to send it off to get recharged but I am having trouble finding a video or set of instructions on how to remove the tube correctly. Can anyone assist?

Contact Trotec support and they will send instructions.

I replaced my Trotec tube last year. Mike is right, contact Trotec and they will send you a PDF file. FWIW its an easy task to remove and replace the tube.

The RF tubes I've messed with at all have been "pre-aligned" and just require loosening- not even removing- a few screws, and unplugging the cable. Replacing is just as easy...

I agree. Many years ago I replaced the tube (Synrad) in my ULS and a few years ago I replaced the tube (Coherent) in my last Trotec. Both went back in easily and didn't require adjustment.
