}The position of the mirror has been adjusted and locked before shipment.

Only if you want more precise adjustment of the mirror position, proceed

to the following steps immediately after the procedure in the previous

paragraphs.

1. Using a pair of tweezers, etc., peel off the two blind stickers 9 on the rear

of the lamp housing.

2. Fit the Allen screwdriver into each of the screws hidden below the stickers

and loosen them. Loosening the two screws releases the locking of the

mirror.

3. Peel off other two blind stickers a to expose the mirror centering holes.

4. Insert the Allen screwdriver into the screw in each mirror centering hole

and adjust the centering of the mirror arc image.

Before mounting the ND filters, be sure to turn off the mercury burner

and confirm that the shutter slider is cooled down.

1. Remove the knob @ from the shutter slider ² and pull out the slider.

2. Remove the ring spring ³ from one of the slider positions.

3. Place the required ND filter | (32ND6, 12, 25 or 50) in either filter position

so that the indication surface of the filter faces downward, and fix the filter

with ring spring ³.

}If two ND filters are mounted in both filter positions, it would become

impossible to obtain the 100% illumination light.

# If the filter is inserted upside down, it may crack due to the heat from

the light source.

4. Return the shutter in the original position so that the click grooves 5

come downside, and attach the knob @.
