Lamp Alignment How-To

After a new installation of a lamp, you may 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.

Lamp alignment screws

There are 3 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.

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.

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