  at the top of the lamp housing 

using the provided Allen key. 

2.

 

Lift the lamp housing 

  to remove it.

Remember  to  wear  gloves  or  use  a  piece  of  gauze 
when  handling  halogen  bulbs

.  Push  the  bulb  clamping 

levers down, and take care while you insert the bulb pins into 
the socket as far as they will go. 

Then  return  the  bulb  clamping  lever  gently  back  to  the  original 
position. 

Caution! 
– DO NOT replace bulb during or directly after use 

Be aware that during use and directly after the equipment has been 
turned  off,  the  lamp,  the  lamp  housing  and  nearby  parts  will  be 
very hot and could cause serious burns. Please make sure the main 
switch is turned off “O” (off), and pull out the power cable. Make 
sure the bulb, the lamp housing are cool before you start replacing 
the bulb. 

 

Please insert the lamp gently, or it will be damaged 
by excessive extrusion. 

 

Do not touch the Halogen bulb with your bare hands. 
It will shorten the service life or cause it to burst. If 
you leave finger marks on the surface, clean it with a 
dry soft cloth. 

 

Please  pay  attention  to  the  warning  signs.    The 
temperature  of  the  lamp  housing  surface  will  be  very 
hot, and can cause serious damage.
