lamp
Hot surface!
You do not need to remove the lamp
housing from the stand to replace the
halogen lamp. Do not
store the
supplied replacement tool (Fig. 47/7)
for lamp replacement in the lamp
housing while the illuminator is
operating.
The replacement lamp (
Fig. 47/8
) may
remain fitted in the lamp housing.
• Switch off the microscope as described in
Section 4.3, disconnect plug (Fig. 43/7) from
connector 12 V/100 W (Fig. 43/3 – reflected
light or Fig. 43/5 – transmitted light) and allow
to cool down for approximately 15 minutes.
• Depress unlock button (Fig. 47/3) of halogen
illuminator HAL 100 (Fig. 47/1), extract lamp
carrier (Fig. 47/2) fully and put it down
separately.
• Depress both spring levers (Fig. 47/5) and
remove the old halogen lamp (Fig. 47/6)
upward.
• Depressing both spring levers, insert the new
lamp in the lamp socket (Fig. 47/4) and release
the spring levers. Always hold/grasp the
halogen lamp by means of the replacement tool
(Fig. 47/7), as even traces of grease on the lamp
may affect its lifetime.
• Shortly depress the spring levers once more to
center the lamp.
• Insert the lamp carrier until it locks.
