MAINTENANCE

• Opening and closing the

projector

Loosen the handwheels (24) and
remove the re-lamping cover (25)
from the projector.
After maintenance, fit the cover (25)
back on and lock the handwheels (24).

• Re-lamping
After opening the projector, loosen
the two side ring nuts (26) of the
lamp to replace and remove it from
the mountings (27).
Take the new lamp out of its package,
loosen the two side ring nuts (26) and
insert it in the mountings (27), then
screw the fixing ring nuts back on.

WARNING: Do not touch the
lamp’s bulb with bare hands.
Should this happen, clean the bulb
with a cloth soaked in alcohol and
dry it with a clean, dry cloth.

IMPORTANT: To distribute the beam
of light uniformly, the lamp needs to
be positioned with the protrusion (28)
visible on the bulb outside the optical
axis of the projector. For this purpose
it is recommended to turn the
protrusion towards towards the top
cover (25) of the projector .

• Replacing fuses
To replace the fuses press the tab
(29) and take out the fuse-holder box
(30). Replace the broken fuses with
new ones of the type described on
the label (31) on the fuse-holder box
(30). Put it back in so the tab clicks
home (29).

• Centring the projector
Slightly undo the mounting screw (23), move the projector horizontally, turning the
beam of light in the desired direction, then re-tighten the mounting screw.
Loosen the knobs (14), move the projector vertically on the bracket (1) to position the
beam of light at the desired point, then lock the knobs (14).

• Centring the lens
Move the lens (8) and/or lens holder (9) axially to obtain perfect focusing.

• Rotating the axis of projection
The holes on the bracket (1) for fixing the plates (13) are appropriately slotted to
permit rotating the fitting on its axis by approximately 3°. This permits fine adjustment
of the angle of the image projected, which is useful when using some particular
accessories such as for slide or gobo projection.
Using the hexagonal wrench (4) supplied, loosen a screw (2) and turn the projector
to the position required, and then re-tighten the screw (2).
