Disconnect the fixture from AC power before proceeding. Always wear safety goggles to protect your eyes and allow a hot lamp to cool for at least

15 minutes before removing it from the fixture.

The MAC 500/E is designed to work with the Philips MSR-575/2, Philips MSD-575, Osram HSD-575, or the Osram HSR-575/2 discharge lamps. ,QVWDOOLQJ￿DQ\￿RWKHU￿ODPS￿PD\￿GDPDJH￿WKH￿IL[WXUH￿￿The lamp holder is pre-adjusted at the

factory; precise alignment may be necessary due to slight variations between lamps. The procedure is described on page 25.

1.The MAC 500/E must be cool and isolated from AC power. Remove the 2 screws holding the lamp assembly. Gently remove the assembly.

2.If changing the lamp, remove the old lamp from the socket.

3.Holding the new lamp by its ceramic base (do not touch the glass), carefully insert it firmly and squarely into the lamp socket.

4.Clean the glass bulb with the cloth supplied with the lamp, particularly if your fingers touch the glass. A clean, lint-free cloth wetted with alcohol may also be used.

5.Re-insert the lamp assembly and replace the screws.
