    2. To replace bottom light (TBL models only), you will require National part #800-400, same as above. Remove stage plate and observe lamp held in place by pressure clips in base. Carefully grasp bulb and remove from clips by pulling straight out. Holding new bulb with tissue or cloth to avoid getting body oil on lamp, push into pressure clips.
