Make sure that illuminator field lens housing and lamp are cool before attempting to remove. Remove illuminator
field lens housing by rotating in a counter-clockwise direction. This housing is secured tightly, to prevent easy
removal by students, so a very firm grip and some strength will be required.
Note that lamp does not screw out. Remove lamp by depressing lamp slightly and rotate in a counter-clockwise
direction until it pops up slightly. Replace with a 110v 20 watt lamp with double contact, medium bayonet base.
This is a standard, commonly used replacement bulb. National #800-102. Carefully wipe lamp to insure it is
clean and free of all fingerprints. Replace field lens housing assembly.
b. Changing bulb on Models 138 and 139 (fluorescent bulb)
Gently lay microscope on side. Using a screwdriver, remove screw in center of each rubber foot on bottom of
base. Remove metal cover plate to expose bulb. Bulb is held in place by spring pressure clips and is removed
by gently pulling bulb straight out from socket. Replace with new bulb. National #800-138. Replace metal cover
plate and rubber feet.
