Replacing The Illumination Lamp - Topcon SL-1E Instruction Manual

REPLACING THE ILLUMINATION LAMP

CAUTION
When replacing the lamp, use care as the metal components inside the housing can become
extremely hot. The suggested procedure is as follows:
* After turning the power switch OFF, loosen the lamphouse cover clamping screw to remove
the lamphouse cover.
* Hold the connector as illustrated below, turn the clamping lever in the direction of the arrow,
and remove the socket and lamp assembly.
* Insert the new lamp into the socket.
* Place the assembly into the housing by aligning the guide with the groove in the lamp flange.
Note:
If the lamp and/or socket is incorrectly attached, uneven or partially obscured illumination may
occur. (i.e., edge of the 14mm circle may be partially occluded)
* Re-assemble the illumination housing following in the reverse order of the above procedures.
* Turn the power switch ON and check to see that the new lamp is properly illuminated.
To avoid electric shock, do not touch the external connection terminal
and the patient at the same time.
