Introduction

Lam p Al i gn men t How - T o

Often, after a new installation of a lamp, you will find that there is an uneven field of light or what is referred 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 projector head. Turning these screws allow 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.

Warning!

CAUTION!

This lighting fixture comes from the factory with a 120V fuse pre- installed. To operate this fixture in 230V, please replace the external fuse with the supplied 230V fuse.

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 gets 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.

Verify that the internal multi-tap transformer is set to match the line voltage applied and that the proper fuse is installed for the appropriate voltage setting. All fixtures must be connected to circuits with a suitable Earth Ground.
