Care & Maintenance
Built for a lifetime of dependable service your 606 needs little
maintenance, but to obtain a consistently brilliant performance
the lens system must be kept clean and the projector
mechanism lubricated.
It will also occasionally be necessary to renew the lamp.
Lamp Replacement
1. Disconnect from the electrical supply.
2. Remove the take-up spool and tilt the projector forward.
3. Unscrew the lamp housing cap (Fig 1 2 ) and allow the
lamp to drop out.
4. Hold the lamp only by the alignment ring.
5. Insert the new lamp as per page 8.
Note
Never attempt to change a lamp while the current is on. Never
turn the machine upside down or lay it on its side while the
lamp is burning.
Lubrication
If the projector is used infrequently the oil hole (Fig 2 17 )
should receive one drop of projector oil before every show.
Alternatively one drop should be applied for every 5 hours
operation.
Cleaning Optical Parts
Before every show the projection lens (Fig 1 9 ) and condenser
lens (Fig 1 4 ) should be removed and cleaned.
