Unpacking and Setup: (continued)

The unit is shipped with the modeling lamp and flashtube not installed. While installing the modeling lamp and flashtube (with glove or clean cloth to protect the hand) be sure they are properly inserted and tight to avoid arcing and failure of the socket contacts during operation. Do not touch the glass tubes with bare hands, as normal body oils will shorten the bulb’s life. Always use a clean cloth or wear gloves to protect your hand from glass breakage and heat.

The 7 1/2 inch reflector is attached by the “quick-change” mechanism. Three tabs on the unit grip the ring on the reflector. Finger levers located on the top of the unit control two of these tabs. To mount the reflector, squeeze the finger levers towards each other and tilt the reflector past the stationary top-tab, then past the two tabs that are controlled with the levers. Release the finger levers and make sure all three tabs are securing the reflector (see illustration below.) All PowerLight accessory reflectors and soft boxes are designed for use with this “quick-change” system or onto this 7 _ inch reflector.
