WARNING
●
Keep the glass section or the end of the lamp out
of contact by hand. If dirt or grease should be at-
tached to it, wipe the glass section with a gauze
(soft cloth) soaked with alcohol.
●
Be sure to install the lamp securely. If it is not
securely installed, the output intensity may be
unstable or the lamp may fail to turn on.
r
Take out the lamp from the lamp package.
t
Holding the lamp flange, insert the lamp gradually
straight into the hole in the lamp holder.
At this time, make sure to hold the lamp flange so that
the slit faces up as shown in the figure and push in the
lamp as it is.
y
After inserting the lamp fully, align the groove in the lamp
fixing cap and the pin of the lamp holder and secure it by
turning it clockwise while pushing it.
* Be sure to turn the lamp fixing cap until it clicks
and gets locked securely.
u
Close the lamp replacement hatch and tighten its fixing
screw.
●
Be sure to turn the lamp fixing cap until it clicks
and gets locked. If the cap is loose, the lamp will
not be set at a correct position, specified light
intensity will not be obtained or the lamp will fail
to light up.
●
Note that if the lamp replacement hatch is not
closed tightly, the interlock switch will function
and the lamp will not light.
●
When using this unit for the first time, detach the
tape which secures the lamp fixing cap. If the
unit is used with this tape attached as it is, the
tape may melt by heat, causing a failure.
Caution
Caution
Be very careful when handling lamps as they con-
tain high-pressure gas approximately 1 MPa (10 at-
mos-pheres) at normal temperature and may burst
if dropped or otherwise impacted.
