These serviceable components may include a light source scanner, lens group and beam detector. The casing bears removable cover units on the access openings. The serviceable components are located under the access openings, fixed in place by the cover units or elements attached to the cover units. Electrical switches coupled to the cover units may deactivate the components when the cover units are removed.
