Replacing the Front glass

The Front glass [5] can be replaced with an optional front glass or a
glass dome. The optional dome enhances the “zoom effect” slightly
when using any of the classic Profoto “zoomable” reflectors. The dome
is however not recommended for any of the Profoto OCF light shaping
tools including the OCF Zoom and OCF Magnum reflectors.
1. Switch off the B1X and remove the battery.
2. Wait five minutes to allow the unit to be fully discharged and cooled

down.

3. Gently remove the Front glass [5] by pushing the springs holding

the glass gently to the sides.

4. Carefully fit the front glass/glass dome in place. Make sure that all

springs holding the glass are back in position and securely holding
the front glass/glass dome.

Changing flash tube and Model Light LED

For replacement of the modeling light LED or Model Light LED, contact
your local dealer or distributor for professional service.
