NOTE: When fitting the lamp position it with the little bubble vertically (either upwards or
downwards) as shown in the diagram above. Do not position it horizontally. Close the
access hatch carefully and re-tighten the 3 screws. To optimize light output it will be
necessary to adjust the lamp alignment to obtain an even distribution of light within the
beam. The three screws (marked A, B, and C) may be gently turned to center the lamp
within the reflector. The projector should be switched on with the shutter open and the beam
focused to do this, it is also advisable to allow the lamp 5 minutes to come up to full
brightness before starting to align it. Note: the three screws will only need a small
adjustment to centre the lamp, do not try to unscrew them completely.
