Replacing the lamps

REPLACING THE VIEWING LAMPS (ScanMate F8 Plus) AND REFLECTION LAMPS
The viewing lamps (ScanMate F8 Plus only) and reflection lamps are
located below the scanner bed. These lamps rarely need to be replaced, and
if they do, replacement should be carried out by an authorized ScanView
support technician. Please call your local ScanView dealer for service.

REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION LAMP

The transmission lamp is a thin fluorescent tube located in the lid of the
scanner. It can be replaced when necessary using the following procedure.
WARNING: If the scanner has been running, the lamp may be very hot.
Wait a few minutes until the lamp has cooled before trying to change it.
1 • Switch off the scanner and unplug the power cable.
2 • Lift the lid of the scanner. Insert the 2.5-mm Allen key (supplied with
the replacement lamp kit) through the small holes in the lamp shield
to fully loosen the four Allen screws that hold the shield in place.
The screws have lock washers on the underside, so they
will not fall out when loosened. To avoid losing any of
