CAUTION
:
1) do not handle the lamp with bare fingers. Use tissue or cloth when handling lamp.
2) There’s no difference in polarity of the two legs of Tungsten-halogen lamp.
Switch the instrument on. Set the wavelength at 340 nm, insert an empty cuvette,
and blank the instrument. If the energy is low, adjust the lamp by “pulling” or
“pushing” it so that the light beam is focused on the entrance slot of the
mono-chromator. Since the lamp socket is pre-aligned, there will be minimum, if any,
adjustment required.
Switch the instrument off, re-cover the lamp chamber and tighten the two screws.
Reinstall the instrument cover by positioning the front of the cover first and then sliding
the back
of the cover over the backside grill plate. Be sure to prevent all wires from
being pinched in the process.
Reinstall the four screws and the
Cuvette Holder Control Knob
