Note: For frequent installation and removal of the lens it is recommended to install the lens while the
lock handle is in “ open ” position (upwards) and put the lock handle in “ locked ” position once the lens is
inserted. Then check if the lens is properly installed by trying to pull the lens out of the Lens Holder.
(this alternative procedure result in less wear of the Lens Holder)

the motorized ZOOM and FOCUS barrels of the installed lens.
CAUTION: Never transport the projector with a Lens mounted in the Lens Holder. Always remove
the Lens before transporting the projector. Neglecting this can damage the Lens Holder and Prism.
