Changing Position Of
Transformer

Mount the transformer on the Swing Arm so that the
controls are facing the operator.

Disconnect the power cable and colposcope light cord.
Unscrew both screws on the reverse side of the trans-
former and take it out of the frame for transposing.

Pull out the lamp housing containing the halogen bulb.
Unscrew both screws on the front and take off the front
housing. Depress the two white leaf springs, remove the
projector and reverse.

Colposcope Care And
Maintenance

When not in use, cover the colposcope head with the
plastic dust cover provided. Clean the lenses with silicon-
treated tissue paper only. If Lugol’s or any other solution
is spilled on the lenses, remove IMMEDIATELY using a
lens cleaning solution and lens tissue.

Lugol’s solution damages the enamel finish and is very
difficult to remove. Use alcohol or a weak bleach solution
to remove Lugol’s from the enamel.

Lamp Replacement

1.

Remove the light plug from the transformer light
source.

2.

After the lamp has cooled, remove the lamp from
the lamp socket.

3.

Cut open the lamp package at the contact side.

4.

Push the lamp firmly into the socket until you feel
resistance.

5.

Push the lamp socket back into place.

DO NOT touch the colposcope lamp. This
shortens the life span of the lamp.

The lamp operates at a high temperature. Do
not attempt to remove the lamp before
allowing it to cool. Allow at least five minutes
for the lamp to cool before replacing.
Replace with Welch Allyn lamp #08100 only.
