BE SURE TO CHECK FOR SAFET y
After  installing  or  replacing  the  lens,  be 
sure to check the following for safety.
1.  Check  the  lens  is  securely  fixed  with  the 
screws.
2.   Check  no  wiring  is  damaged  or  tangled 
on  the  gear  of  the  lens  motor  or    the 
other mechanical parts.
3.   C h e ck   n o   p a r t   i s   m i s s i n g ,   a n d   n o 
mounting part is loose.
When  the  lens  is  attached  to  the  projector  and  images 
are  being  projected  onto  the  screen,  the  peripheral 
focus  may  be  out  of  focus  in  some  localized  areas.  If 
this  happens,  insert  the  one,  of  three  sizes  of  spacers, 
in between the Lens Attachment and the lens to adjust 
the focus.
Inserting  the  Spacer  corrects  the  distance  on  the  Lens 
Adjustment and improves the diagonal focus.
The  corrected  distance  is  determined  by  the  thickness 
of  the  used  spacers.  As  a  guide,  the  dist ance  is 
adjusted  by  approximately  30  mm  for  each  0.1-mm 
thickness of the spacers.
There  are  three  types  of  spacers  provided,  and  there 
are  four  of  each  spacer  type.  Use  these  spacers  to 
correct the distance as required.
