out the charger cord.
• The lamp has a three-position switch on the top,

MAINTENANCE
To Replace the UV-A Tubes:
Turn OFF the lamp. Remove both tube guard screws, lift
up the tube guard and set aside the guard and screws.
Grasp the metal ends of the tubes. Gently rotate each
tube a quarter turn until it loosens and remove the tube.
Use a clean cloth or gloves when handling the new
tubes to avoid getting fingerprint oil on the tubes.
Reverse the above procedure to insert the new tubes.
Replace the tube guard and tighten both screws.
NOTE: For best performance, both tubes should be
replaced at the same time.
Housing and Tube Maintenance:
• Always turn off the power and unplug the lamp from the
power outlet before performing any maintenance.
• Use a soft cloth to immediately clean spills from the
lamp housing and wipe dry. Do not allow any liquids
to leak into the internal electrical components. Keep
the lamp away from heat sources and out of
high-humidity areas.
• Use a soft cloth with a mild detergent solution to clean
the tubes.
EYE PROTECTION
Do not look directly into the UV light. Wear UV-absorbing
protective eyewear (such as Spectro-UV UVS-30
spectacles or UVG-50 goggles) whe n operating this or any
UV lamp. In addition to providing protection, using the
Spectro-UV eyewear will increase contrast between the
fluorescent area and the background and will eliminate
"blue haze" interference.
