Remove the hex head screws along the lower front and rear edge of the speaker cover. Remove the
speaker cover by carefully pulling slightly forward and upward from the front lower edge, then lift it off to
the rear, taking care not to drag the cover on the lenses. Remove all of the screws form the lower front
and rear edge of the lenses and carefully lift them off. NOTE: If ambulance clips have been installed at
the rear of the lenses, only the front screws need to be taken off. Then lift the lens up and over the clips.

Reassembly - All Products

When reassembling, check the lens perimeter gasket and replace if damaged. To reassemble, reverse
the previous procedures. It should be noted that a slight downward pressure on the lens may be required
during assembly. All screws should be hand tight. Excessive torque is not needed and may strip hole.

Lamp Replacement

Remove the lens as outlined above. Next inspect the bulb and compare to Figure 1 to determine bulb
type. It may be necessary to remove any rotating or cylindrical filters to make access easier.

H-1: First grasp bulb at base and turn until retaining clip is accessible. Using a blade screwdriver,
remove the retaining clip and pull bulb straight up. Grasp the power lead with long nose pliers and remove
the bulb. Replace with new bulb, insuring that the power lead is fully inserted into the bulb. Insert into the
rotator and insure the retaining clip is fully inserted.

S-795 (Bayonet Style): Push down and turn to remove bulb. Install new bulb the same way.

DO NOT LUBRICATE: The bearings used in rotating lights are permanently lubricated with a high-
performance synthetic oil that is not compatible with many lubricants. Mixing lubricants may result in a
gummy mixture that will freeze in cold weather.

WARNING!

Lamps are extremely hot! Allow to cool completely before attempting to remove. Gloves
and eye protection should be worn when handling halogen lamps as they are pressurized
and accidental breakage can result in flying glass.
