Lamp and Lens Replacement
All Maxa Beam Searchlights have a field-replaceable Xenon short arc lamp and lens.
The replacement instructions listed below are included as a general reference. For
complete, detailed instructions on how to replace a searchlight’s lamp or lens, please
see the Instruction Sheet that ships with each Replacement Kit.
Safety Precautions:
•
ALWAYS wear included protective eyewear, a long-sleeved jacket, and gloves
whenever the searchlight front lens is removed or the lamp is being handled.
•
ALWAYS disconnect the searchlight from power when performing
maintenance. Never perform maintenance on a searchlight connected to power.
•
NEVER touch the quartz envelope of the lamp. If accidentally touched, clean
the lamp with alcohol wipes and allow it to dry completely before installing.
•
NEVER wipe the reflector surface as this will cause scratching on the reflector.
To remove dust or particles from the reflector, follow Step 3, below.
•
NEVER look directly into the searchlight when it is turned on. Due to the high
intensity light that is emitted, serious eye injury may occur.
