Does anyone know how to get the threading lamp in and out of this machine? It looks like they built the projector around it.

2-words...Fuse Puller!

It really isn't all that hard to remove. I STRONGLY suggest you turn off the power to the projector before attempting to change it otherwise you might short out the 24V supply and have a real fuse to change.

If you lack a fuse puller and must pry...do so at the metal ends, not in the middle.

Ah yes, another tool. Haven't seem one but I will take a look.

Thanks

Maybe Marks Arbor press will do the job [Big Grin]

You know it would be easier if I would try and stick my fest in there. What a strange place to mount a festoon lamp. Hopefully Kinoton may have an answer but it no doubt will be a list of other tools to take it all apart.
