• First insert a shielding glass (85) into the two
holders (86) ( Fig. 23 ).
• Insert the new flash bulb into socket (46,
Fig. 25 ); then push it carefully inwards as far
as it will go ( Fig. 26 ) (the polarity marker (+)
must not be visible any longer). If necessary,
move flash bulb gently up and down.
• Make sure that the bulb is inserted correctly.
The electrode marked with + (47) has to be
inserted into the socket (46) with the same
mark (48, Fig. 25 ).
Caution!
If the bulb electrodes are inserted the
wrong way, the flash bulb will still
function, but the bulbs life will be con-
siderably reduced.
• The contact spring (44) has to touch the igni-
tion wire (45) of the bulb after being inserted.
• Swing the reflector downwards. Reinsert and
retighten screw (49).
• Close lid (4) of the instrument again.
