OPERATION OF FLEXIBLE ARM
Your new LS-135 & LS-150 light has been carefully designed to give you optimum performance to enable you to easily articulate and
place the light exactly where you need it. These design attributes include:
• The lamp has been offset at a 12° angle relative to the Luminaire housing, allowing the physician an unobstructed view of the
field of interest.
• A pole to flexible arm joint that allows the flexible arm to be freely rotated about the pole 270°.
• A flexible arm to Luminaire joint that allows rotation of the Luminaire about the flexible arm 300°.
• A 24” flexible arm that allows you to easily articulate and hold the Luminaire in an infinite number of positions.
Please use the following guidelines for proper articulation of the flexible arm:
• The flexible arm should be articulated (bent), NOT TWISTED. Twisting of the flexible arm beyond its rotation
stops will decrease the life of the arm and can cause it to lose its ability to hold position.
• Failure of the flexible arm due to twisting may void the warranty.
Special Note: We recommend that you DO NOT acutely bend the flexible arm as shown to the right.
LAMP REPLACEMENT
Disconnect power cord from electrical outlet prior to replacement.
• Turn power switch to the off (“ ”) position and unplug power cord from outlet.
• Rotate Light Assembly so that the lamp points up (towards ceiling).
• Completely loosen screw in Lamp Housing and lift to expose the Lamp .
