Replacing the Lamps
The First Star lamps give approximately 800 hours of use, but a
spare is a good idea. Bulbs can be replaced when cool, the same
way a household bulb is changed. The inner tungsten halogen lamp
is protected by a shatter resistant Pyrex
® outer shell, so no worries
about the oil in your hands causing blistering or otherwise damag-
ing the bulb. For replacment bulbs use the 250 watt bulb
(SKU # DP-250B). Other bulbs may be used, as long as they do not
exceed 250 watts.
Connecting the FirstStar Lamphead to Your Swivel
1. First loosen the securing knob on the swivel. Figure 2
2. Line up the Swivel with the yoke of the lamphead and slide into center

A quick word about SAFETY:
The high wattage bulbs in the FirstStar will burn hands when they
are hot, so please keep children away from lamps. When you
leave the room, be sure to turn off the lamps. Always disconnect
power supply when changing the lamps.
