 THE2000WATTbulbmountingcomponentsincludeashockmountsupportatthefront
ofthelamphouse.Insertthe2000wattbulbthroughthetopofthelamphouse,passingtheanode(+)
endthroughtheholeinthereector.Passtheanodepinasfaraspossibletotherearofthelamphouse
topermitslidingthecathode(-)endcapthroughtheringoftheshockmount.Temporarilyremoving
the65131000anodeclampfromthebrasssocketofthecolletallowsaddedclearanceforthebulb.
Gentlyrotatingorturningthebulbwhileslidingthecathodeendcapthroughtheshockmountwill
slightlycompressthecoilspringandpreventstrippingthespringfromitschannelinthering.

 REPLACETHEANODECLAMPovertherearbulbsocket.Inserttheanode(+)pin
ofthebulbintotherearsupportcollet,andrmlytightenthesocketheadclampingscrew.Slidethe
65410000cathodecontactclampoverthecathode(-)pinandtightensecurely.
 ANALTERNATE METHOD of installing the 2000 watt bulb is to dismount the
83748000shockmountringfromthefrontbulbsupportassemblybyremovingthe4100620socket
headclampingscrew.Slidetheringoverthecathode(-)endcapofthebulb,andinstallthebulbby
insertingtheanode(+)endcapthroughthereectorcenterholeandseatingtheanodepinintothe
rearsupportcollet.Remounttheringtothe83364000basebracketofthefrontbulbsupportusing
thesocketheadscrew.DONOTdismountorrepositionthefactory-alignedbasebracket.Secure
theanode(+)clampingscrew;installandtightenthecathode(-)contactclamp.
 THESOCKETHEADSCREWwhichmountsthe83748000bulbsupportringtothe
83364000basebracketmustbetightenedsecurelyenoughtoclamptheuprightbulbsupportringin
avertical(90°)positionandpreventitstiltingforwardorbackasthebulbisfocused.Theendcapof
thebulbshouldtouchonlythecoilsofthe83410000shockmountspringtoallowthebulbtoslide
forwardandbackwithaminimumoffrictionandno stressonthequartzenvelope.
 OBSERVETHEPOSITIONoftheTriggerWireonthexenonbulbrelativetothepoint
wherethebulbpassesthroughthecenterholeofthereector.Somebulbmanufacturersattachone
endofthetriggerwiretotheanodeendcap;ifthistriggerwireapproachesthereectortooclosely,
theDCcurrentmayfollowthispathtogroundandpreventbulbignition.Inthisevent,detachthe
triggerwirefromtheanodeendcapandloopitaroundthebulbousportionoftheenvelopeasillus-
tratedonthelinedrawingatthebottomoftheSAFETYPROCEDURESpage.
 ITISRECOMMENDEDtoestablisharoutineforperiodicallycheckingallelectrical
connectionsfortightness,particularlythoseatthebulb.AlooseconnectionintheDCcircuitwill
causefailureofthecontactsandleads,andmaydestroythebulb.
 THEREFLECTORisopticallypositionedatthefactory.Donotalterthepositionof
thereectorbyadjustingthethreadedtierodlocatedintheuppercornerofthelamphouse.
