1.

 

Before beginning maintenance, put on protective eyewear, a long-sleeved jacket 
and  gloves.    Disconnect  searchlight  from  power.    If  searchlight  was  recently 
turned on, allow the searchlight cavity to cool completely before proceeding. 

2.

 

Use  the  1/16”  Hex  Driver  that  is  included  with  the  Maxa  Beam  Searchlight  to 
remove  the  three  screws  holding  the  lens  in  place.    Remove  the  old  front  lens, 
O-ring, front lamp support, and spring and discard.  

3.

 

If the reflector has visible dust on it, blow away all particles  from inside of  the 
reflector using a can of compressed air.  Do not wipe or rub the reflector surface 
with anything as this will scratch the surface.   If  your reflector requires  further 
cleaning, please contact the factory for further instructions. 

4.

 

Insert the new Front Lamp Spring and Front Lamp Support into the open end of 
the  lamp  (see  diagram).    Locate  the  new  O-ring  and  Spyder  Lens  Assembly.  
Place the O-ring over the step on the inside of the lens assembly. 

5.

 

Line  up  the  three  screw  holes,  then  place  and  hold  the  lens  and  O-Ring  on  the 
front of the light.  Ensure that the front lamp support seats into the center locator 
of  the  lens.    Once  the  front  lens,  O-ring  and  lamp  are  positioned  correctly, 
secure the assembly in place with three new  Lens Screws.  Do not over tighten 
screws.  When properly installed, the O-ring should not be visible. 

6.

 

After replacing the front lens, the searchlight may need to be refocused.  Please 
see page 12 for details on how to focus the lamp.
