Warning and Precautions

DIRECT VIEWING OF EXITING LIGHT CAN BE HARMFUL!

The light at the front of the light source and at the tip of a connected
fiber-optic bundle is of high intensity and can result in very high temperatures.
To minimize the risk of injury, avoid direct viewing of the light or contact with
surrounding surfaces. Light includes UV wavelengths which may cause skin
or eye irritation from direct exposures exceeding 15 min./day.

TO PREVENT TEMPORARY BLINDING

and contact with heated parts, always plug the fiber optic bundle into the
light source before turning the power on.

ALWAYS PROVIDE ADEQUATE VENTILATION

to prevent overheating. Do not cover the light source or place the unit
within 7.62 cm (3 in.) of a solid object.

DURING OPERATION, THE LAMP SHOULD BE ENCLOSED

in the light source to prevent injury in the occasional circumstance of the
lamp shattering.

USE CAUTION WHEN REPLACING LAMP.

Allow lamp to cool. Use only GE Inspection Technologies replacement
lamp #SPL-600. For optimum performance, avoid handling the bulb or reflec-
tor. Fingerprints or other contaminants on the glass may result in perfor-
mance degradation.

DO NOT SWITCH THE LIGHT SOURCE ON AND OFF IN RAPID
SUCCESSION.
Doing so will dramatically shorten lamp life. After turning
off, wait 15 seconds before turning on again.

The supplied detachable power cord is the means of disconnect from the
power source.
