5) Inspect the new bulb pins to ensure that they are straight and parallel to each
other see image below. If the pins are not aligned properly lightly bend them into
the correct position. Correctly aligned pins will make installing the bulb much
easier.
6) While wearing a powered free latex glove grab the new bulb and place it into the
contact probe clamp while moving the bulb pins to align them with the pins
sockets, shown in the picture below. CAUTION: even with latex gloves on be
careful not to touch the inside of the bulb’s reflector. The oils from your finger or
dust from the gloves can stick to the reflector and can alter its output
characteristics including life expectancy.
