6. Open the QT 8500 lamp box and
remove the lamp in its plastic
wrapper. Carefully open the end of
the wrapper so that only the two
lamp base pins are exposed (see
Figure 3-3). Hold the lamp within its
wrapper to avoid touching the lamp
glass. If you accidently touch the
lamp glass, clean it with an isopropyl
alcohol wipe.
Caution: When handling the QT 8500 lamp, avoid
contact with the lamp glass. If the lamp glass
is soiled by oil or dirt from skin, gloves, etc.,
clean the cold lamp glass with an alcohol
wipe. A soiled lamp could overheat and burst,
causing damage to the fixture.
7. Holding the lamp by its wrapper, insert the lamp in the reflector
until the base pins extend through the rear opening of the reflector
(see Figure 3-4). Continue guiding the lamp until the two base pins
are firmly seated in the lamp socket and touching the ceramic stop
(see Figure 3-4).
Remove and discard the plastic wrapper. You do not need to optimize
the lamp because the Trackspot fixture uses a self-aligning lamp
socket.
If you disconnected the access door from the fixture, reconnect the
safety cable to the access door. Replace the access door and secure the
thumb latch.
Do not remove your protective eyewear or leather
gloves until the access door is in place
