flight case to transport the fixture.
Installing or changing the lamp
Disconnect the fixture from AC power before proceeding. Always wear safety
goggles to protect your eyes and allow a hot lamp to cool for at least 15 minutes
The MAC 600/E
,QVWDOOLQJDQ\RWKHUODPSPD\ GDPDJHWKHIL[WXUHThe lamp holder is pre-adjusted at the factory; precise
alignment may be necessary due to slight variations between lamps. The procedure is described on page 17.
1. The MAC 600/E must be cool and isolated from AC power. Remove the 2 thumbscrews securing the lamp-
socket assembly to the rear of the head. Pull out the lamp-socket assembly.
2. If changing the lamp, remove the old lamp from the socket.
3. Holding the new lamp by its ceramic base (do not touch the glass), insert it firmly and squarely into the lamp
socket.
4. Clean the glass bulb with the cloth supplied with the lamp, particularly if your fingers touch the glass. A clean,
lint-free cloth wetted with alcohol may also be used.
5. Keep the lamp wire between the fins as you insert the lamp-socket assembly into the head. Turn the assembly
counterclockwise to align the holes with the spacer nuts. Replace the thumbscrews and tighten them by hand.
6. Before striking the lamp, reset the RLAH and RLST counters under the TIME menu to track lamp hours and
lamp strikes. See page 13.
