Never open the lamphouse or handle the lamp when it’s hot. A hot lamp is under much greater pressure than a cool lamp. Let the lamp cool for at least 10min before handling it. | Never open the lamphouse or handle the lamp when it’s hot. A hot lamp is under much greater pressure than a cool lamp.

Before performing a lamp change, prepare your workspace. Place the empty shield or other protective enclosure on a clean, clutter free surface with adequate room to work. It should be open and ready to receive the used lamp. Make sure you have a clear path to the lamphouse with no obstacles or tripping hazards. | |||
