Lamp Alignment How-To 

Lamp alignment screws  

Often, after a new installation of a lamp, you will find that there is an uneven field of light or what is 

refered to as a hot spot. This is due to the most intense point of the lamp source not being positioned 

optimally within the reflector. 

There are three lamp alignment screws 

provided at the base of the fixture. Turning 

these screws allows you to optimize the 

projection quality of the spot as well as the 

overall intensity of the beam.  

Even out this plate by turning the 
lamp alignment screws, prior to 
lamp optimization. This will 
provide you a good starting point. 

1. 

Project a white spot against any flat 
surface. Preferably the surface should 
be white or pastel in color. 

2. 

Turning the lamp alignment screws, try to position the hot spot in the center of the beam as best 
as possible. This could require many attempts on your part. It is advisable to even out the 
screws prior to lamp alignment as described in the illustration. 

3. 

Once the hot spot is in the center of the spot, do your best to turn all screws equally as to affect 
movement up or down within the reflector. 

4. 

As you move in and out of optimum lamp focus, you will see the hot spot either get wider or 
narrower. The goal is to either totally diminish the hot spot by having it widen and spread across 
the entire spot or moving the hot spot so that it covers as much of the beam spot area as 
possible.

Fuse Replacement 

Disconnect the power cord before replacing a fuse and always 
replace with the same type fuse. 

 The fuse is located 
inside this 
compartment.
Remove using a flat 
head screwdriver. 

FUSE

With a flat-head screwdriver, unscrew the fuse 

holder from its housing. Remove the damaged 

fuse from its holder and replace with exact 

same type fuse. Screw the fuse holder back in 

its place and reconnect power.
