INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
A). Installing or replacing the lamp
1. Install the lamp with the fixture unplugged from the electric source.
Never try to replace a lamp with the fixture still turned on and still hooked up to the electric.
2. If you are replacing the lamp, before opening the housing to replace it,
let it cool down to room temperature. The lamp burns at very high
temperatures and it is a discharge lamp. If the lamp has been running then
expect anything up to half an hour before the housing is cool enough to
consider even opening up.
3. When installing a new lamp do not touch any glass part of the lamp.
Always use a clean cloth to handle lamps. The sweat from your fingers will cause the lamp to
burn incorrectly and will shorten lamp life. If you do touch the glass, then check in the lamp box
for a special wipe to clean the lamp.
4. Only install HTI 150 GY 9.5 lamps. Any other lamp is not acceptable.
Procedure :
1) Unscrew the 2 screws on the back of the housing that hold the lamp housing plate in position.
2) Gently pull the plate out using the knob in the middle of the plate.
3) Carefully insert the lamp into the socket. The socket is polarized so there is only one way to insert the lamp.
Gently slide the lamp into the socket making sure the spring clips secure the lamp socket correctly. Then insert
the plate back into the fixture and fasten the 2 screws back in place.
4) On the plate there are 3 small screws marked 1, 2 and 3. These are used to adjust the lamp. You can adjust
the 3 screws to fine-tune the position of the lamp. In this way you can achieve the maximum output from the
lamp.
Please remember the lamp is not a hot-restrike type, you must wait for approximately 10
minutes after turning the lamp off before turning it back on again.
Warning :- Never ever operate the lamp when it is not inside the fixture. HTI lamps are volatile and could
possibly explode. Only turn on the fixture with the lamp securely inside the fixture and the cover plate screwed
on.
